You guys are way too kind.
At this point I'll bring the Spruance back on the bench to complete them together.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting the head off a Hydra, two more take it’s place.

Re: 1/350 Academy Oliver Hazard Perry
After the gel dried I sprayed a second coat of blue, added the light blue/turquoise, applied the first coat of acrylic varnish and some of the cotton. The additional varnish coats will cover the cotton (all part of the effect) then I'll add some more cotton on the surface.
After the varnish has dried.

Both of these are marvelous!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Re: 1/350 Academy Oliver Hazard Perry
The Fig 7 is almost there.
After several coats of acrylic varnish to add some depth, I added the final cotton.
Using very small pieces, I added the cotton to the base using the varnish.
After everything has dried. Notice the one of the 3D crew (not painted) leaning up against the superstructure. Next is to add some of these guys, repair the flight deck netting, add the rigid hull inflatable and helo. Oh yeah, I also broke one of the HF antennas with the airbrush, so that needs to be remedied.

Re: 1/350 Academy Oliver Hazard Perry
Thanks Lyle,
This is all I have left, the crew, helo and RHIB. I'm swamped working and going to real estate school at the moment so I only get about an hour or less to do anything. At the moment I'm painting the crew. I do need to make an officer or 2 though.

Re: 1/350 Academy Oliver Hazard Perry
Beautiful job on the ship and the water, I just read through the build from the beginning again and am amazed on how easy you make it look.
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall
