Hello my Friends.
This is my latest using the Academy deluxe edition kit which comes with a Pontos detail set.
This kept me very busy and was a lot of fun to build.
All the best to you all.
Ralph.

Very nice Ralph.
An excellent addition to your superb naval collection.
Top work.

If anyone is interested, the sinking of the U.S.S. Indianapolis in July 1945 makes for sobering reading........

Excellent Ralph. Very nicely done indeed. Love the subtle colouring.

Quint from 'Jaws' was supposed to be a Indianapolis survivor - that's why he hated sharks.
