Hello and Merry xmas,
Im planning a 1/350 Repulse full hull projects, and intend to do proper weathering on the vessel.
The question is how often do modelers weather the lower half of the hull? If so, how about do one go about doing it, with all the lichens, chips etc?
Thanks in advance

Cheers
CR

Hello CR,

Shift over to the Dockyard forum here at MSW and check out Daniel Moscatelli's 1:144 Fletcher WIP thread. He has the most convincing lower hull weathering I have ever seen in ship modeling.
