Thanks, Camthalion & Jeff!
As the GB is finished but this isn't, could one of the Admin guys please move this thread to Physical Models: Sea for me, please, & I'll finish it there. Thanks!
Well, the boat is finished ready to prime. Weapons are still to be built. Here are the pic's as of an hour ago.
The water-jets, canopy, ladder, pilot's seat & wheel are all loose-fitted for the photo's & will be painted & detailed seperately.
The greenish spots are liquid mask over clear parts (mostly handcrafted from clear sprue).
The cabinets behind the cockpit are .50-cal ammunition lockers, each sized to fit 16 x 200-rnd boxes. Microphone & R/T handset are handcrafted from styrene. Copper & various grades of lead wire used for the wiring.
Still have to make the anchors & fit the life-rings, extinguishers (after painting) ... plus the weapons.
Not sure if I should put exhaust outlets at the stern for the 2 x Ford 351 Windsor marine V8's or if they should exhaust through the water-jets. Suggestions?
Hope you're all still enjoying this!
Cheers! :)
Guy
