Another project still on the workbench, HMS Trafalger. All the parts got a coat of paint and are ready for a weathering and highlighting now. My Diorama projects were on hold until last month because I got new bases for my displays. Now I use a wooden frame with a insert made from MDF (particle board) coated with a thin plastic layer. I arranged the parts finally to prepare working on the water base. Note the subs scratch build hatch. It is a bit of guess work and looks a little bit like a toilet lid 😉

That looks brilliant. Looking forward to see the finished diorama. By the way: how is the kit? I planed to buy it but I want to hear some feeedback about it.

Hi Duncan, thanx for looking at it. The kit is nice and easy to build. The only thing I missed is the tiled surface structure. At first I thought to angrave or to paint the structure, but than I left it like it is because you can't see it from a normal distance.

Thank you for the information. Looks like Airfix has changed.

Hi, @Duncan, the new Airfix kits aren't bad ones. They lack a bit in detail but they are not bad. I really like Airfix 1/48 scale Supermarine Seafire Mk 46 / 47! @Steve, you're welocme 😉 Cheers, Christian
