Very nice work Nick, the waves look particularly effective.

John

Very nice!

Russ

Thanks guys!

The waves are just very simple to make, my technique of using modelling clay and clear glu for the gloss effect

btw, the big dio I made before was..well....wrecked. I let my younger brother play with the dio and just like a wink of an eye, all was ruined! I seemed to lose hope on that dio knowing that it's a massive wreck....oh well...lesson learned!


Nick

good work.

Great looking model Nick and beautiful water too


Jose

Thanks Jose!

Finally, after several days doing the finishing touches, she's finally done, and she now sits on her new home on the glass shelves.

I depicted her as "heading towards Liverpool without boats due to exercises" hehehehehe...I'll probably add flags soon.

The water is actually a VERY deep blue but it turned out lighter.....
I will post some more new pics here soon then I'll think more about posting it in the gallery.

Thanks,
Nick

Great Job, Nick! Looks very cool!
Congratulations to commissioning!

Very nice... Raises the standards for my trumpy Hood waiting in my stash...

Superb job Nick!



Jose

Thanks for the words "motivation" guys!

It's been a long journey since that dio became trashed! but it was worth it! Even without the boats (which I carelessly lost) it still looks fabulous! I will probably post pics of Hood in the gallery by tomorrow or the next day coz' the camera's repaired.

Thanks!!!
