Fantastic work Bob.
I remember you posted pics of Blue Marlin with the Cole on steelnavy message board several months ago. I was very impressed with this build.
IX-514 Looks great as well. :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: :wave_1:

Guys i got a little question.
I searched for an real kit from an dutch navy ship.
Anybody know's if revell/italeri/tamiya/trumpeter ETC has ever made an dutch naval ship?
Because the only kits that exist, are ugly as hell and like 250 euro a piece, and they are 1/720 scale....
Thnx.
Mitch ;)

Mitch these are 1/1250 kits. All kits at this scale are very expensive compared to 1/700.
