Holy ..., don“t you ever relax my friend ???
As always, great work, oilcanning a 1:72 sub is a major task!
Remember to open up all the floodholes and scratch the inner hull ...
Cheers/Jan

Nice job. I have that kit in the stash but it will be some time before I get to it. Could you explain what your technique is for oil-canning? I would like to try it on a 1/350 Tamiya Enterprise.

I first thought that, but I didn't think anyone could do that great of a job so I assumed you had another method. Thank you for the reply.

Jajjajaja Not my dear friend!! I do not kill anybody!!! It is alone ... the set of cover of wood is too expensive and difficult to obtain. So it is necessary to use the inventiveness!!!
But take the beers that you send. While I rest the hand.!!! Jajaja Come well ... only I broke a wick!!!
