Looks like ball, tracer, armor piercing, and repeat. In aircraft it was 3 balls, tracer and AP as I recall. Not sure about the Navy though. Stunning workmanship and detailing.

gberger Posted September 26, 2018 Author #11 Posted September 26, 2018 Sadly no. I decided to just display it rather than play with it. The details are not compatible with tossing it about in the water. I do have a test tank video, though. MOV00109.MPG paulsutcliffe, Ryland Craze, popeye the sailor and 3 others 6 Quote
Omega1234 Posted September 26, 2018 #12 Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) Hi Gene That’s totally understandable. I’d be quite wary of damaging the model as well. I just can’t seem to get the vid to work, though. Cheers.

Ryland Craze Posted June 24, 2020 #15 Posted June 24, 2020 Your craftsmanship on this model is just outstanding. The model is so life like. I do not think you missed any detail.

Chuck Seiler Posted June 24, 2020 #16 Posted June 24, 2020 Throbbing engines, indeed! Back in the 60's, when I was a wee lad, we used to ride on an old PT boat converted for tourists...The Pink Flamingo. I still remember the engines. No 50 cals.

You've taken them far beyond the rough parts I designed! mtaylor 1 Quote Pat M. Matthews Model Marine Model FUNCTION as well as FORM. Get your boats wet!
