Kostas, I have never seen anyone else get the 'wet' look better than you. Your ships really do look like they're at sea!

Another great looking scene and im amazed how fast you keep them coming. Are they built one after the other or do you have many projects on the go at once ?

That is just beautiful work. 1/700 scale?...unbelievable.

Awesome job, Kostas.

Cheers,

Very impressive as usual. Question.....There is the word Hood in the rear (aft) sectin of the ship standing on the upper deck . I looked at several pictures of the ship as I though this really looked cool and checking my 350 scale didn't have it. So I researched a bit and found nothing to support this. i saw the word HOOD painted in that area below where you placed it. I am by no means a Hood expert by any stretch of the imagination.
