This is a very multi use feature that tons of people will gain knowledge from (hence General Modeling GM section), you can use it in a small boat PT/PBR/civilian..... vignette or diorama or just a back drop.

Hi Scott!
I've been following the thread about this over at Armorama...looks very convincing, and a really cool technique. Thanks for sharing, mate!

I can see a lot of applcations for this. I have often thought using polyurethane foam for lanscapes, now that I've seen the results, I think I will indeed use it.
As far as ship builders, I can envision using this technique to model a Norwegian fjord.
Thanks Scott for posting that here as well.

LOL! D'oh! Tis uncanny indeed Mr. Smith! I looked at the Heller selection of viking boats shortly after reading the article.....
And perhaps, watch the 13th Warrior for inspiration!
