Not so fast. I've seen some killer ships at regionals.
I do believe that since it will be in a seascape it may be shown in the vignette category.

Re: Modelcrazy's bench production 2021
Yes I am. Several of my club member are working on renting a large van and carpooling down with all our model entries. Of course it has to be big, we plan on bringing home half the vendor room!
If all goes well, you'll see the Antonov An-124 there.

It will be good to see you there. Now if I can save up enough to but the other half of the stuff on vendor tables.

Re: Modelcrazy's bench production 2021
Some new pics for ya boys.
I worked on the hull weathering as stated but I was just not happy with the hammock splinter shields I made from Milliput for the gun platforms and such. They were out of scale and just didn't look good and took away from the overall picture IMO....so I removed them. After replacing the railings around the 12.7mm platforms and sanding where I had attached the other shields I was done for the night. I have a few more places to replace/install the railing and then on to the rope splinter shields for said guns. First I need to repair the paint where the hammocks were located
