Hi friends, 4 years and the half in the making, some tremendous help with reference from my Chums Jim B. and Cerberus JF (between others).. well that's over, the 1/35 bit of battleship Masséna as hulked on the Seddulbahir beach is finally finished.
Thanks for watching and to my friend Alex Duchamp for taking the pictures

Marvelous!

I can smell the sea and feel the rust in between the fingertips :-)

Jim I believe your own model must be the size of the my own Masséna turret. Speaking of which your picture (that i also have in my stash) certainly shows the said turret absent from the wavebreaker-Masséna, now i just hope nobody else noticed :)
And thanks for your comment!
JB

Beautiful vignette on the Masséna. Great attention to detail. The work on the gun turret and mangled hull is truly remarkable. :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1:
