H.M.S. Warspite gets a few scars

[flyjoe180]

Wow Ken, nice work mate. So many aircraft types involved in attacking Warspite. Great effects; the crew members are nicely done and the fire hose stream of water looks awesome.

Thanks Joe do you think the weathering is ok or a bit overdone.

[flyjoe180]

I think it looks good as it is. Wouldn't add too much more though.

[Guest]

Wasn't planning to I did think I had overdone it a bit.

Hi guys and gals I must be on the last leg now starting on the aerials, and doing some work on the background have some surprises up my sleeve with that, I recon I've got about a fortnight left and will be all done, unless of course I have more detail ideas.

Hi all well the basic ship is built (a few deck parts to add and the railings ) but other than that she is nearly finished.

where would I get rigging plans from as I've no idea where the rigging is tied off, I can see most of it on the cover pic but not where it goes and there is nothing in the instructions.

That is looking great Ken. The lighting and background bring the atmosphere to life. Nice work.

That looks very good Ken im impressed I was a bit worried when you were mentioning different scales of aircraft but the 3D effect you've achieved is very creative top work mate great stuff
