Hi Zach, thanks. I haven't decided yet. The plan was to put a base but since such subject is quite predictable - beach, water, few obstacles etc. so I may change the plan 🙂

Lovely small detailing - makes the model so interesting to look at and great paintwork on the figures and the small details themselves - in fact wonderful work all round.

Really impressed with the weathering - very very realistic: to me one of the best examples I have ever seen, particularly on the ramp and ship hull / upper deck area.

Thank you Mark. It's a really labour intensive project given how big the model is. Never done ships before so had to do a lot of research. Will keep updating.

This project is a first time to me. Coming in 1/35 scale the size is tremendous comparing with the usual AFVs I've been building. Bit tricky just trying to handle such a big model longer than 40cm on my desk. Big salute to the Ship Gang!
One of the challenges met in the process is to get familiar with the maritime environment, which is quite distinctive from the land AFV's. Did quite a lot of research on the net to find pics of different things, such as seawalls, docks, landing ramps from ferries etc. Even learned how to tie sailor knots! Quite an interesting process and I have to admit that I've been enjoying that process.
Anyway, started next project now and let's see how it goes.

I think the rope of the lowring loading bay, should show more strait tension. IMHO. Photo 24 Left side...8)

Just added the M4 halftrack to the LCM today. The LCM was completed 12 months ago. It's quite interesting to compare my own work 12 months ago - I'd definitely repaint the LCM sometime in future with the same technique applied on the M4 today.

Outstanding job on the chipping and weathering. Very convincing looking builds. 👍
