Hello Serhan, very nice job on such an incredibly small model. the paint and finish are very impressive. I can't imagine working with such small parts, it would play havoc with my blood pressure. Congratulations on a fine job. Al

Hi Serhan

You managed to make a very good model out of it! IMHO, this could have been made in a water base, at full speed
You could use the full hull and if it didn't work properly... you could take it out and fix the propeller shafts, propellers and rudders.
It's a relatively cheap model, with a good quality/price ratio

Congratulations!!!!
Cheers,
Rui

Very nice job. If you didn't know how small the kit was you'd have thought it was a larger scale.

Great looking model, I have attempted this only in 1-72 which begs the question, were the forward machine gun not included with the kit (1-350) as shown below on this 1-72.
S-100
I know there are slight differences between scale models in what you actually get for parts and sometimes things are left out, while I have built a few 1-400's your S-100 looks nice and sharp, just wondering about its weapon system.
