Looking superb the growth looks great and the subtle colouring isn't over done to spoil the scale of the ship. Very nice work Alan.

Can you move the model? Reason why I ask is that the Prince of Wales is actually inverted and laying on her port side slightly.

It does capture the remains of a once proud fighting ship waiting in the dark slowly decaying, the expanse of seabed adding to the emptiness and then this rusting hulk.

Oh worries mate I've sent you one back

I think the photos are a bit bright so I'll post some natural ones tomorrow

I agree, taking piccies with various flash settings doesn't work, you do need daylight really.

I've done a bit of a touch up on her , I built up the coral to give it a bit more of a natural look

That looks nicely built up Alan, makes it looks less plonked.

Thanks mate , I thought it wasn't sitting properly and she looks more natural now well I think it does

Yep, as a sunken ship of serious tonnage would, it would make a trench either gouged from bow first and sliding or from a straight down drop; silt etc would be thrown up and scattered around. Over time more would accumulate in areas via currents.

Nice work.
