In case you guys are interested. here are some pics of the "Big J" I recently finished. Sorry about the quality though I need to practice more with the camera.

Try getting a lamp to help light up the subject next time you snap a few. KIt looked good, but more lighting would have brought out details. I'm sure there are more qualified folks out there than I to give photo advice.. Me, I just like ships

I agree with ya ut being my first pics post I didn't know til it was too late. got about three of them now.
