    Kirby Tools Precision (magnetic) Knife handle

    1/700 USS John Hancock

    Weekend update. Started the painting process. After I found the Model Master Acrylic equivalent to modern haze gray, I got it shot on the model. Came out great. Started painting the decks with the recommended Vallejo color for the decks, way to dark and my brush painting skills need a...

    1/700 USS John Hancock

    Today's work on the Hancock. I got the decals artwork done. What you see in black, with the exception of the ship's name, will be white. After mulling over the warning rings colors, I am going to print those without the white. I would have to print them separately and, in 1/700, lining them up...

    1/700 USS John Hancock

    Progress for today. I’ll need to scan in the decals and digitize them then print them. The originals are badly yellowed.
