Thnx Guys,

 

I'm going full speed ahead with this project. Figures are all in mid painting stadium.

It's the bloody railings that slow me down. Since they were put together before and I've dismantled them,

they're reluctant to get back together. Almost done though. A postcard of Reinhard Suhren is in the background.

The captain of this tub.

The attack periscope lacked the helicoil wires to prevent the wash / water trail. So I've added them.

 

I should make a move on, since the Italeri S100 is steaming towards me!

 

Cheers,

Jeroen

Looking good Jeroen, When does she get paint?

 

Hi Kev,

 

Soooon! Almost done with the railings and figuring out what parts will be light grey and dark grey.

 

Today however I was distracted by the S100 P*&^ extension that arrived! Man, this thing is BIG! :speak_cool:

OK, finished with the shenanigans!

And continued with the U-boot. First paint is on Kev!

Dark grey in the interior of the tower. Light grey on the outside.

I'm covering the wooden planks with real wooden strips.

This will be followed by many washes and pigments to achieve a heavy weathered look.

 

Almost started work on the S100 today, after recieving the Model Master barrels, but decided not to....

 

Cheers!

Jeroen
