Sounds like there is a swing starting to come back to hobbies that are tangible. The "I built this!" with something solid to show give more impact than the "I beat level 499 of the stupid game that I wasted all that time on". All the stupid short videos are just as worthless, even though I do...

I had a similar problem with some of the portholes on the Arizona build. They ended up being oblong front to back where there was a curve. The big problem was that they had a ring around them the stuck out a little. I finally did some measurements of the correct portholes and made a small...

Yeah Tim, I get it with the AM wood deck. A decal deck would almost be too thick at this scale. If the model is not specifically made for the wood deck thickness, it is NOT going to work or look right. Are those supposed to be round port holes on the side?

Hungarian eh? I thought it was an Italian tank such as they were.

All a matter of perspective. The time I went into Canada back in 95 with my daughter, about mid May, it was jacket weather to us. The Canadians were running around on the beach of Lake Erie in bathing suits. It was quite windy with 2 to 3 ft breakers coming ashore off of the lake.

@centaur567 Don't feel too down my friend, there are a number of aftermarket people that do decent Disney style Nautilus kits. They are just rather expensive and require you to completely scratch build the interior detail if you add it.

There is a big model show in Chattanooga next April that I think Squadron is putting on.

What do you call mild James?

Always liked the Disney Nautilus. This kit isn't of the movie sub (Disney lawyers and copyright, Sheesh 👿 )

That ship is really crisp Chris. I like how everything has sharp edges and clean lines with smooth surfaces. You did a really good job with the master.

Be aware of Trumpy's bad job at referencing. Though in this case how much reference is actually out there. Looking forward to it Tim!

The detail on your micro planes is really good Chris!

Looked like a decent event. Was that M3 halftrack with the two figures a 1/16th scale build?

I knew you were going for impression rather than accuracy which is why I didn't bother to do measurements of the scale barrel I have. If you want, I can still give you the measurements. It is looking good as is and I applaud your build.

Have to get all my software lined up first and learn how to use it. Then it becomes my old adage, "It's what it allows me to plan".
