giampieroricci Posted September 16, 2023 Author Share #406 Posted September 16, 2023 (edited) I redid the columns of the base by reducing their size and added two side support bars.

No Idea Posted September 16, 2023 Share #407 Posted September 16, 2023 I think that now I can see the difference in the mounts; you have made a very good decision.

druxey Posted October 25, 2023 Share #416 Posted October 25, 2023 I realise that your model is stylized, but the actual British ships had painted, not raised lettering.

giampieroricci Posted October 30, 2023 Author Share #420 Posted October 30, 2023 I do not generally like painting on my models; I know that in reality, on this model, the lettering and the various decorations were painted, but I decided to give my model a certain style, certainly a personal one, and I will try, if I can, to make the decorations with boxwood bas-reliefs Meanwhile, the model is ready for the exhibition in Pisa next weekend: KentM, rybakov, GrandpaPhil and 24 others 23 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
