Hello Guest! There's a lot to look over, so sit back with a cup of coffee, relax and browse around. We have a great group of ship and boat modelers here, both newbies and old salts, from all over the world. Our goal here is to help each other, without criticism or rebuke. Both newbies and old salts alike can learn from each other. No one has all the answers. Our most basic rule is simple, respect for your fellow members and their opinions. And don't take yourself too seriously! wirewolf (John, AKA - Cap), Forum Administrator

Default Battle station completed

Finally finished panart battle station. Now on to finishing Victory. Excuse the poor photo's (still getting used to a new camera). Should have added a lot more detail but I got tired of looking at it!

Congrats, James! I just finished a model last night myself. Feels good doesn't it?
Nice looking battlestation you have there. I like how you have one cannon rolled out and the other in recoil.

Thank you Ben: Yes it does. I left out a lot of the detail that could have taken more months to complete and tried different techniques in building (It was my "training cruise").
Unlike some here, I have difficulty doing two models at the same time , that's why some detail is missing. Guess I can come back to it later; but with three kits waiting, it will be "much later"!
