This is one of those rare models that looks so good it could be real.

Absolutely stunning weathering takes this one into a league of it's own. Have you thought of submitting it to a magazine for an article? The trouble is most of them have done this particular model but I think this even competes with the one in Tamiya Modelling International and that was superb.

Thank You so much for encouragement Bunkerbarge.
I never realy thought of that, im just enjoy modeling as it is, and never thought of any commercial gains. I like the fact i can show You all my way about building the U-boot. Im glad You enjoy it.

Wintergarten completed.

You, sir, are insane. In a good way, of course... How do you make such tiny pieces? Mind giving us a short writeup on the making of your next bit of gubbinz?

Jianaran,
Siara is only 25mm tall so all the 'tiny' things he makes are actually quite large to him!
See, there's always a simple answer to the 'How the bloody Hell did he make that' question!

Sav.

PS How the bloody Hell did you make that?

Thanks guys!
The tiny piecess are pain, but with some patience is actualy such rewarding work. I think i know now how to use my soldering iron- which helps.
If only i could, and know how to make my own PE things...eeeeh.
As it is now, the only solution is good light, and steady hands, and traditional means of working with things.

First impressions of the outside of the CT. Few areas in need of attention:

PS: Nice weather, and fridge full of beer = no work in the yard. ;-)
