Good food, good friends, and plenty of plastic, who could ask for anything more! Can't wait to see what you do with the Type XXIII and the Hood.

Julian ... yes our meetings lately are very Light!! Not alcohol.
It is as Al Bubnis says.. Good food, good friends, and plenty of plastic ......
Thank you Jan !! Look like an engineers' meeting of the Kriegsmarine!! Jajaj The Kit is very big!! And of very good quality but since we saw in the construction of Al and Michael much is absent and in this scale it is obvious!!!!
The schemes of painting are of captured units ... it is not the idea. Possibly let's initiate a construction to duo with my friend Paul.
Friend Kev

..You to cattle my fondness jajajja
Me take pleasure that you are of his pleasure.
Regards for All

This is a great set of photo's showing how you build up the waterline weathering, really interesting and the result is very realistic.

Hey Daniel, I just caught up with this lone wolf of yours. I can sum it up in 2 words for you...totally awesome!!
Well, as I do have this big hunk of plastic as well I'll be saving up this thread for future reference. It will come in handy once I start mine. I was thinking about doing a waterline dio, but after seeing your oil tin effect on her....mmmm, I'm having second thoughts. LOL
You do great work, so keep it up because I'm learning a lot

You see Mike, the Gentleman fron Montevideo is a genius and a master builder
I think I have learnt more from him than he from me and he is also a very nice person to trade jokes and ideas with.

Daaiel and Julian both of you guys are genius when it comes to build ship models. At least, that's all I've seen of you guys work, who knows what else you guys build and are great at.
Daniel, since you are finish with this...are the finished model posted here someplace?
Julian, your dio is awesome. I must have looked over it several times now. I'm thinking in the lines of similar dio...I saw this photo and wanted to replicate it...

http://portraitsofwar.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/uboat4.jpgWell, that's the plan at least...keeping my fingers crossed
