Udo Browarczik
Stunning! Congrats. I´m still looking forward to having the Time, this Behemoth requires. She´s waiting on top of the shelf....

@ Lode , the deck is from scaledecks.com, John makes a realy good product.it requires a bit more prep and effort then most wood decks but the end result is so very worth it!

tinyadmiral Autore
@ Lode, I have it on pretty good authority that scaledecks.com will be working on a deck for Rodney as well as one for nelson in 1:200 in the near future (sometime in the net year or two). I am just one of their beta testers and not on their design staff so cant say for certain but it has been mentioned.

tinyadmiral Autore
@ James, thank you very much.photo etch is kind of my favorite part of the build.the etch here is from Mk.1 design from korea, im very happy with the detailing in the set

Martin Oostrom
Fantastic how she looks. The deck, railings, everything!

Anthony Flanagan

Peter Hardy

Dmitry Borisov

Peter Hardy

tinyadmiral Autore
thank you one and all! coming to the end of this build soon.waiting till the end of the month to order the barrels and blast bags and some e-z line to rig and then ill be done

Anthony Flanagan
Peter, I was hoping to just coast but you called me out! Actually, before Christmas I got a Takom T-55 AMV that I have been working on. I have it all completed but the treads. I am trying to get it and few other close finished projects done before soccer season starts in mid-February and my weekend time disappears. That's why I lurk about projects like this one to keep my mojo working!
Thanks for the shout-out!! 👍👍
