The Ship Model Forum

Guys I'm new on here although some do know me from shows mainly Telford in the UK (see you in a weeks time) my ship building has never been prolific however that changed a couple of months ago, so here are a few finished subjects.

All are 1/350

USS Gato


U-1023


I-58 as built


Surcouf


Lastly
Z-17 Diether von Roeder

Hi, sorry these are mine for some reason my computer logged me out as I posted, did it again just as I was about to post this reply.

Hope you like them and any comments appreciated.

Thanks guys

Still learning the art of rigging so the Z-17 has almost none, the Surcouf has its aerials while I got into a mess trying to do them on the I-58.
I'll re-visit the I-58 as I have some new material and superglue accelerator.
