Thanks for sharing such great work... love the Nina (?) in rough waters.

Rui - is the Soviet sub in dry dock yours? Lovely piece of work!

Hi Mark

Thanks for airing it! It turned out great!

To James:
The Nina is not the Nina but a 1/250 scale of a XV century portuguese caravel, by Ocidental Replicas (a defunct portuguese kit manufacturer). Model is by club Vice-president Silva Rocha

And yes, the Akula is my own creation... you can see more of it on a previously published MOD here

Another note is that the IJN Choun Maru (the dark grey armed merchant) was not finished at the time

Thank you!
Rui

You know, Rui, you must have been very proud to not only have your work selected for the Show's program cover, but to have fooled so many people into thinking there was a dry dock nearby...We all strive for realism, but you actually pulled it off!

Rui
