[marijn van gils]

Really looking forward to that one!!!

But first, have a nice show in Telford!

[JIM BAUMANN]

Hello all!

I am suffering from the 'post- Telford 'crash....

==> The model was well received by all who saw her

Today at last managed to shoot some ' proper' photos of the '91 Hood for submission to the gallery...

I am spending the evening cropping and selecting a usable bunch from quite a lot of photos...(! )


Kind regards all

and thank you for following this thread.

next up is NORMANDIE .... ( at last! ) the wonderful 1930's French superliner --as built....-- in 1/700--

herewith a quick selection of pics

Lovely build and well deserved accolades Jim, congrats!

I saw this model in Telford. The pictures don't do it justice. It is incredibly fine and the rigging is really something. You do need a white background to be able to see it. Congratulations Jim for the category winner and gold medal!

Looking forward to see the Normandie, that is a big ship.

Jim, your model is superb and inspiring as always! Those self-crafted parts and level of details is out of my imagination! I will be dead if I try to make to make my model like yours or it will take me 10 years or more to finish one! Amazing!
