Naval modeling - ships, submarines and boats.
This is the 1/72 Revell German Type VIIc kit finished as U-96, the inspiration for the movie. I built it pretty much out of the box with the exception of the swordfish decal which came from a German producer named Peddinghaus. They offer [...]
Trumpeter 1/700 USS Baltimore (1944)
This is the first ship model I've attempted in some time using all the details (photo-etch, rigging, sea base, etc.). Pretty satisfied with the results but definitely room for improvement.

I am pretty new heater, and decided this would be a great place to upload my progress of my trumpeter USS Texas model. I’ve been working on it for about 3 1/2 weeks. And I’m a little under half way done.

All of my submarines were built o.o.b. and painted per the kit instructions and places on the kit's little mounting stand. It was a joy to build them [...]

Scale: 1:250
Scratch built
This is another model built o.o.b with a base, including some paper flags. On final assembly I noticed that one big sail had the wind coming into the sale at a different direction while the wind was coming into the other sail at an [...]
