SPA Modeler

After some time, Maddog Manufacturing Shipyards launched another ship for her shakedown cruise. Here is the Tamiya 1/700 scale USS Indianapolis as she sails on by:











She is pretty basic, mostly because I cannot afford aftermarket railings and rigging would bring about a bunch of breakage.


Comments are welcome, thanks for stopping in. Stay tuned, more ships will be coming down the slipways soon!

Looks very good and elegant!

Well done! Looks good to me.

She turned out very nicely Mark. What colors did you use for the paint scheme?

Looks great Mark!

Looks great Mark!

Very nice Mark!

Thank you guys! Again, I'm sorry for the late replies. What a week! Your accolades mean a lot to me and keep me motivated to do more.

Carlos, I do know the upper part of the forward hull and the superstructure were neutral grey and the deck was a Tamiya blue that Sean Fallesen got me which is a perfect match for the deck blue. The lower hull color I don't recall, but Sean said it is the correct color.

Well Sean is THE expert for naval matters, so you’re in safe hands there.
