[Sauragnmon]

Beautiful work so far Phil, seriously awesome detail.

[philman62]

Thanks Sauragnmon, that's very kind of you.

The hull weathering looks exquisite it does give the model a nice touch Phil, i forgot to ask you last time is she RCed or fully static? i myself wouldn't get such fine model closer the water...



Jose

[philman62]

Thanks, Jose. You're right, in fact it will be fully static. I don't like RCed models.

Phil: What is the copper color top on those bollards? Are these custom made bollard tops?

[philman62]

Yes, Chuck, they are custom made bollards: I've made the two holes and added some details (from remaining PE parts) on the top.
Below are 2 pics with the added details on forecastle plate deck (painted, waiting for the right anchor cable size), AOTS, p. 153

I'm glad to know she is static phil it would've been a shame seeing this girl belly up and sinking..

[bearcat]

I had some bad dreams last nigth, imagine sitting in an tiny liferaft and this monster glides by just a few hundred meters away, this forum giving me nigthmares???

[chuck]

I have to say I've never dreamt of any warship.

[Sauragnmon]

I can't... I've had a few dreams involving Yamato... one being a rather interesting time, the night before her launching, on top of B-turret... so... yeah. You're not the only one who has some interesting dreams, Bjorn.

You can find the URL to the photos themselves if you look through the source code of the page (right click, then select View Page Source if using Firefox browser). In the source code, search for the URL that ends in _ph.jpg (press ctrl+f to open the find function, then type "_ph.jpg" and press enter) - copy that URL, replace the ph with fs, and you can see the full size image in a savable manner.

Here's the link to the first photo:

It says you don't have permission to view it.

[Timmy C]

Erk, I guess you can only view it if you saw it in the unsavable mode first.

[J. Soca]

i apologize guys i really didn't save any pictures when i found the website i only clicked to see if i could make them any bigger. it seems this website doesn't let you save pictures into your computer unlike the last website that had them before, what can i say now just hope hope they don't shut the webpage down. sorry again i should've taken my time checking the whole thing thoroughly .


I'm i still your favorite person around here Chuck

[philman62]

Guys, open the full image, then the key "print" with your keyboard, open Paint then paste the image inside Paint, save the image as .jpg, open the saved image inside

a program like ACDSee, Modify-Edit mode command inside ACDSee, crop the image and finally finished editing and save. Done.

[Timmy C]

^ He's right. That would be quite a lot simpler than my method.

[Sauragnmon]

I don't know if it's as possible with their site, but you could also use Firefox's drag-copy potential to snatch copies off the site.
