The Sinking of HMS HOODEpoxy Resin Diorama

About a year ago I saw on FB an amazing diorama created by the famous diorama master @won-huilee showing the sinking of the HMS Hood and I was mesmerized by it. This diorama stuck in my mind ever since and I always wanted to try it. I [...]

HMS Prince of Wales 1941, Flyhawk 1/700

This is one of my favourite ships, but I have hesitated to post it because, after all, I had built it a bit long time ago. To be honest, it was my first Flyhawk kit and my first attempt at rigging. Again, as before, I cheated with the [...]

IJN Battleship Mikasa 1905, Hasegawa 1/700

Let me post another IJN ship, but it is much older than previous one. This is IJN battleship Mikasa, the flagship of Russo-Japanese war (1904-1905). She was designed and built by Vickers shipyard in the UK; therefore, it was technically a [...]

YAMATO "Before and After" diorama

I made a battleship YAMATO "Before and After" diorama and I am posting some pictures. The small scale (1/1250) made it somewhat difficult for me, but in general everything went well and in the end I think it turned out to be a [...]

Scharnhorst, 1943, Dragon Smart Kit

This submission is a mid-build evaluation of Dragon's 1/350 Scharnhorst 1943 [Smart Kit]. Many others have submitted comprehensive and helpful reviews on this kit and its predecessor, Scharnhorst 1940. This is a nit-picky submission, and [...]

Oldie but Goldie: Tamiya 1/350 Bismarck

Here are some photos of my first ship built after >30 years: the classical Tamiya Bismarck. The only upgrades added to the kit were the decking and some generic DKM railing. Other departures from the kit were home made [...]

DKM Bismarck 1/700

A couple of months ago I came back to the hobby after a long seven years without modelling anything... Since I got into model making I always wanted to build the Bismarck. 13 years ago I purchased Revell's 1/350 scale kit, back then the [...]

USS West Virginia

Ever since I got the USS West Virginia in World of Warships, I have really wanted to build a model of it. There were some fitting issues with the kit but it was a pretty fun build. The entire thing is painted with one paintbrush. This is [...]
