Naval modeling - ships, submarines and boats.
Hi All,
I am presenting two WW2 Gato class submarines. Additions for my ships I visit builds.
I have had the pleasure/honor of touring the USS Drum, in Mobile, Alabama and the USS Cod, in Cleveland, Ohio.
If you are ever in either area of [...]
Hi everyone, here is my latest ship 1:350 scale DKM Bismarck as she would have looked early March 1941 minus the air recognition symbols. Base kit is Revell and Pontos Photoetch set is added. The kit is old and the Pontos set is one of [...]
Here is my first work after many years break of model building. A first attempt at doing something I haven't done before. This construction has taken a year, during which I have been working on and off with the construction. You can see my [...]
