Share Fiona HoldenHi! Does anyone have the Seahorse decals spare? I ruined my sheet long story involving cats and a mug of tea! I wrote to Revell but they couldn't help me as the kit was out of production, I can make do with getting stencils for the major markings, so if anyone has spares they could sell me please drop me a message. Thank you.

Share gorbygould Hi Fiona, it looks like ten members have completed this kit, it may be worth sending each one a private message to see if they have any spare.

21. May 2014 at 23:29:23
Steven Van Dyck Thanks for the appraisal, Bill. I have used a Humbrol silver acrylic spray can for primer and then used the hairspray technique to attack the subsequent layers of Tamiya paint that I airbrushed. Masking had to be done with paper due to the hairspray-weakened layers. Finally a panelline wash accentuates surface details.

Fab, you are right
Have you seen the set square on the navigators table- and the divider? Revell has definitly a sense humour

Arne Greve Hi Roland, ich habe wieder meine normalen Maße erreicht. Dank Deiner Ausführung.
Bei Farbangaben halte ich mich persönlich sowieso nur vage dran. Letztendlich leidet jede Farbe unter den äußeren Natureinflüssen. Ein Mitsubishi-Grün hat z.B. unter der Sonne des Südpazifiks schnell seinen Originalton verloren. Ebenso das Nakajima-Grün. Das hat z.B. aufgrund seiner hohen Braunanteile die Tendenz dazu, auch Braun zu werden, wenn der Farbauftrag nicht erneuert wird.
20. November 2013 at 11:57:51
Roland Sachsenhofer Hallo Arne,
ich glaube, wir beide sehen das recht ähnlich.
Die von Dir angeführten Umstände des Vergilbens und Ausbleichens macht den Modelllbau ja gerade interessant und geben Interpretationsspielraum. Kein Modell gleicht dem anderen- so wie ja auch deren Vorbilder vom Zahn der Zeit zu Einzelstücken geschmirgelt worden sind...

Auf den Fotos kommt das Grün- trotz Weißabgleich- etwas zu bräunlich rüber, aber über das hinaus: die Zusammenstellung von Grün, Rot und Grau ist einfach gut, das sehe ich auch so

Markus Kutsch "Holy Cow " puts it straight.
Hope you got enough space for it.But now its almost to late anyway!

Holger Kranich What the hell...!
This looks like a lifetime project to me! Very impressive! I´m tuned in!

Frank Krause @Holger: This could be a project for you. You could leave your island without using the ferry!
29. January 2013 at 08:36:38
Holger Kranich Frank, you are right! But i´m concerned about sitting on the chimney of a steamship for more than a minute...

Damien Battersby OK I give up what shelf in the lounge is this little tacker going on hmmmmm

Haratio Fales The Model is 8 foot 8 and a 1/4 inches long, which is 186 scale meters. it weighs about 140 lbs which is accidentally very close to being scale weight of the real ship. I am using various models to augment this project, so its a project in a project. I have a forum post on Resin Illuminate under the military model section that covers this in more detail. It is my aim to turn this into the largest model ship kit in 1/72 scale when I have the project completed, and if not then I will have a nice show piece for my fireplace mantle.

Share Haratio Fales I started building the ship in April. I have the seaplane kit from Revel. I am still waiting on the Catapult from White Ensign.

Frank Krause Fortunately you don't need much space for this in 1:72.
Amazing - a full vessel from scratch! How did you do the hull?
28. January 2013 at 23:36:10
Tino Löffler Ok, let me see that I understand you... You build a ship for a plane?
28. January 2013 at 23:41:50
29. January 2013 at 07:24:38
Haratio Fales The hull is constructed from wood frame fill in and Auto filler (Bondo).

Haratio Fales added the White Ensign Models Arado Katapult mit Zylindern (1:72) to his
stash.

Frank Krause Hi Jan,
sorry, I can't help, but Zimmi or Roland should be able to do so. They've already completed that kit.
