The USS Indianapolis sets sail again! Chris Flodberg shares his latest creation with his 1/350 scale rendition of the USS Indianapolis. Chris has used Academy''s USS Indianapolis CA 35 kit to create a seagoing diorama of this iconic ship.

Chris is master of the solid waves!

We need to ask if we can publish his water technique here. I've seen it described in other forums.
