Bronco XXVII Seehund

Master at Arms
Here is another shelf queen that needs to be dethroned. This languished in its box 3/4 done for too long.

Here it is as I found it: This is mostly OOTB, with some missing rivets and other small details added:

I wanted to do something a bit different for camo compared to all the others I have seen on the web, then I stumbled upon this photo thanks to Saul.

That's it so far. I am bouncing back and forth between 3 projects - all Queens trying to get them done before I start anything new!
 
Superb as usual John.

This kit is on my list for a RC conversion, great to see an excellent example.
 
Perfectly sublime John! I'm thankful to Saúl for sending you the shark photo as that scheme you've done is spectacular.
 
Okay moving in on finishing this. I have completed and loaded the fish, added salt streaks, more rust streaks, and polished the heck outta the dome.

John, you know I really like this even if it is a what-if scheme! Those masks worked well for the sharkmouth too!
