The Ship Model Forum

Thanks everyone for your kind words.

Sir Paul: I will follow your instructions.

Spruances Class ships are a very interesting and beautiful.
The kit has a very fragile in parts and many faults which I have tried to fix. The masts have had much work but I think the result is good. The original masts were poor.

Also wanted to say that this forum is something spectacular to learn this great hobby. Your works are very, very, very interesting. Thank you again.

Superb work sir on a bear of a kit!!! I too love the addition of the pier and the cabin cruiser in the corner; nice touch. You did her proud :thumbs_up_1:

Excellent work! I really like the touch of diorama in the corner to give a sense of scale and realism. Great Job!

I especially like your mast work. Nice job.

A successful model!

This one looks nice two, The masts add a nice touch. I know the Arii ones were aweful and tough to get off the sprue without breaking. You might want to take a really sharp pencil and shade in the windows. It's really the only thing missing from your build. Nice job!

god thats small!! love it especially the water!! great job :)
