Thanks for the interest.

PM coming your way.

How about some RN, German, US, and IJN 1/700 bridge equipment - range finders, direction finders, pelorus (pelorii?), signal lamps, etc. etc... Too many model manufacturers (Flyhawk being a notable exception) leave a very bare bridge, or poorly detailed equipment.
:wave_1:

...and a few more.

[b][color=#008000]Thanks, fellas![/color][/b]

Fully agree ,no contest ,your products are much better than the best acrylic (smoothest fine detail)
and much cheaper!!!!!!!!

It's a shame we can't get you into aircraft, I'd love some 1/350 Skyhawks but the normal 3D materials are inferior to this lovely grey resin.
