Impressive miniatures.

Have a look.  I found his "models under fire" to have a definite "wow" factor.

The Alexandria raid model is fantastic.

Thanks Mark

Agree on the Alexandria diorama. But looking at those hands, isn't the artist a "she"?

Looking at the uploaded videos I would say with 99% certainty the models are done by a woman.
Amazing skills take a look at the diorama video of USS Arizona. The hands are giving it away.

My Admiral looked at the video and agrees, the modeler is female.  Very talented too.

I believe Mark is correct referring to the modeler as he.  Based on the interview in the link below, Ebroin Song is a Korean sculptor/modeler.  I watched his video on the battle of Midway-Akagi on Fire diorama and agree with everyone that his work is truly astounding!

Speaking of impressive miniatures, have you seen this?  It's the most amazing miniature art I've ever run across.  The Mount Rushmore carving is inside the eye of a needle.  The BMX rider carving is on the tip of a dog's hair.  The skateboarder is on an eyelash.  Yes, an eyelash!!      https://www.willardwiganmbe.com/

Makes my eyes hurt just thinking about working on something that tiny.

Must be some really tiny people carving those masterpieces!

I've been told that Preble Hall will be putting out a new exhibit of miniatures later this year or early next year including models by McCaffery, Reed, and McNarry, the gurus of wooden ship models in very small scales.

It will be next year, I understand. Well worth waiting for!

Those attending our Admiralty Models Workshop in two weeks will be amongst the first to see this collection in a private showing!

I really wish I could be there with Chuck, David, you and the attendees.  Hopefully next time!!!  Enjoy
