What's one forum visitor being calling Jim Baumann lately? "the top dog" I think it was.
I thought that was very funny and so accurate too, like this model in fact.
Once more top dog of a boat, top dog of a painting, top dog of a sea, top dog of pictures... top dog really!

Amazing piece of work for such a tiny model.

I showed a mate at work. He didn't believe what I was showing him. He thought the pic with the pencil in it was trick photograpy.

A beautiful little build by the master, and something worth doing for every 1:700 scale modeller as it concentrates the mind and eye far much more than the larger ships. Don't forget your "optivisor" though otherwise the finer detail is impossible to see and do.

Cheers,

Hi Peter

Not if you are 'blessed' with being very short sighted like me, just take your glasses off!

Great build, but the size would strain my old eyes. Gunny should be proud because I have went out and bought a 1/700 Ent. So I'll join the 1/700 club and the flat top club in one stroke.
