Very nice, especially the rigging. About the next subject, why don't you join the cruiser group build?

As I said in an earlier post, I built this model earlier in the year and really enjoyed it... But THIS is simply stunning!!!

This is one of the sharpest and cleanest 700 scale models I have ever seen... Something for us all to aspire to... Congratulations! :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1:

Maybe the best rendition of the ship I've seen to date!

It's complete! Finally! :heh: (Jim: I didn't know how to make water, nonetheless I've tried a new way to mount my ship :big_grin: )
Thanks Bill (and other fellow guys) for your appreciation of my ship! I did seen some very stunning ships recent years and mine is just a imitation to those great builts.

Stunning. Without doubt, the best 1/700 HMS Tiger I've ever seen. Congratulations on a marvelous build.

:woo_hoo: Vincent!!

excellent-- beautiful rendition of the ship=>very finely modelled and well rigged!

I too always intended building her in her later years with the much enlarged fore top...


Miniature watermaking eh...?

Have a look here:

my methods:

making

and a whole host of other methods also here
