L'Amarante by giampieroricci - 1749 French Corvette scale 1:30


Recommended Posts

I'm not impressed! This is what I call a Gimmick and it does nothing for the model.

My two Cents

Peter

 

It's lighting the interior of the model to better show the detail.  How is that a gimmick?  And what it adds to the model is interior lighting, delivered from inside the model instead of a light of some sort shining into it.  It's to illuminate the model, not 'do something for it'.

Lovely work Gianpiero.  How did you cut the square holes in the top of the capstan?  Drill and file?

Perhaps I missed it in your log but what did you use for caulking between the deck planks? Black paper? The effect is excellent!
