Glad you like it 👍 I have some future 1/144 navy subjects eyed, so this one sure will not be the last!

Great work! At first glance I was sure it was in 1/72nd...

Cool panitjob and presentation!
For me, however, there might be a little more rust present.
But I also like the way it is 😉👍

Thank you for the feedback 👍 More rust would iindeed be a nice decision to push with those "utility" type of craft. With this one I feared overpowering the whole look by going to heavy with rust effects, yet a lot more corrosion-effects can indeed be done... which will be in my mind for some future naval subjects (especially one historically challenged by galvanic oxidation processes...)!

Album info

A small 144th scale LCM(3) from Trumpeter with some PE from Brengun and a 3D printed M3A1 Scout Car as well as some stowage. It was something of an experiment as to what I can do technique-wise in 1/144. Turns out, chipping in that scale is quite interesting to put it mildly 🙂
Unfotunately, I did not have bigger rigging to hand and 1/700 ultra-fine rigging is to small for this scale...
