There is something about WW1 and WW2 ships that are just romantic and stylish. Modern ones still look badass but they feel like some kind of a streamlined soulless machines.

[@screeny30]

yes, you are right. I think the same way. Especially Japanese ships of that time look somehow "romantic" - I really love them

[@memetasticvondank131]

*Japanese ships do really give off that kind of feeling...*

[@switch_lp1302]

Yes modern warships are rly boring

[@switch_lp1302]

I would love to see a comeback of these not so clean ship designs

[@vasili1207]

Why stop there let's all remove our car wheels and push the body around on logs its slower but more romantic...... push faster love we are only doing two logs a minute.... we are almost at McDonald's

[@dusanbolek8004]

Those 1/700 planes on aircraft carriers are always killing me. They are like human faces, no matter how small they are, any imperfections on them are still very visible on a finalized model and painting them properly in this scale is no easy task even for nimble hands. You have nailed them 100 % though.

[@michaelmartin9022]

I wanted to get into modelling and bought a bunch of planes modelled in transparent plastic, so I could leave the cockpits unpainted and have them "see through"... ish. Then I just sold everything.

I was building a Fujimi 1/700 Zuikaku over the weekend, my first aircraft carrier kit and the planes legit drove me insane lol, didn't help that the runner was in clear plastic for some god damn reason.

As a longtime fan of resin water modeling, I was skeptical of his foil method in the beginning. But after seeing it finished, I have to say that's one of the best ocean surface models I've ever seen.

[@comradeboris2335]

damn i have never even thought of using aluminium foil for waves. thats absolutely genious!

[@marcush2220]

Akagi was from the start too be a Battelcruiser in the Amagi class. But under the buildt she redesigned and buildt to a CV. Ps. What an amazing buildt with so many details and with that ocean, it's just stunning.

[@JamesB21a]

Excellent work. I had a model of the Akagi once, but I left it in the same room as a model of the Enterprise, and the next day it was gone.

[@Daniel-wy2kx]

I would have loved to have seen one of these carriers as a museum ship, studied the internal layout, learned what daily life was like aboard.

[@jchng00]

thank you for sharing. this is one of the best 1/700 model ship building tutorial i have seen. i really like the additional information about the mixture in percentages of paints thinner and psi used. i hope you will build more 1/700 model ships so that we can learn from you. thank you. merry christmas and a fruitful new year. joe @ singapore

[@Zinmar]

I'm really glad you showed working with the photo etched. I have a couple models that came with some and I've never used it before and was wondering how to work with it.

[@labschi]

The more videos I'm watching the more I've to laugh about my first steps in modeling: I built a ship model and put it on my window sill :D Okay, that was over 20 years ago ... Amazing model and scenery! The only thing I would have added would be smoke from the large exhaust openings at the side :)

The detail in this 1/700 build is so surreal I kind of miss some personel and cockpit interior :-) No, honestly, Mr. Scaleaton - This is unreal! Such work and patience with fantastic result. The still shots are just wow too!

[@privatehudson516]
