Visby is the one with the single antenna on top whileH ärnösand is the other with the upgraded radar mast.

After a coating of neutral grey it was to start masking for spraying the darker grey. The side grills were made with carrier fishnet cut in oval shape and glued on a black area for maximum contrast. It was the closest thing to the real that I could think of

The base.

Sided were primed and painted in the same camouflage scene.

Styrofoam with heavy gel on top. I used a tooth pick making parallel lines to form waves. Then applied few gesso layers to smoothen it a bit. Around where boats will be placed, I spread with my finger some gel to make a smooth surface. Then sprayed blue. Then Tamiya clear blue. Then some white preshading. Ready for boat instalments and final work.

I procced in the same way as usual. Only difference this time I extended the use of silicone to all white areas to avoid the "dry" looking of my previous themes. The whole thing was covered with 2 ingredient varnish like these used on automobile industry.
