Good job Anthony!
I built that kit a few years ago.
One small point of criticism and a question:
If you weather the ship, it’s a good idea to weather the propellers too. Propellers are made of bronze or brass and they oxidize very quickly in salt water. A brownish green wash will do the job.
What material do you use for the white belts, that hold the ships boats?
Anthony Alvear said on January 10, 2017
Thanks Ulf, The idea is only to give him a subtle weathering, not oxidation extreme, because I do not like it…the material is only white paper Finely cut,
