Flyingfortress Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Revels 1:72 scale Gato. This beast is huge! It measures over 52 inches long. Before beginning the build, I researched other builds to make myself aware of any pitfalls or tips and short cuts. I haven't had a single issue with this build yet and would love to get myself one. The stand is painted with a mix of Gunmetal and Stainless Steel for an industrial look. The Navy lapel pin is held on with a set of magnets so when Mr Gaca goes to his reunions, he has a nice pin to wear. The stern assembly. The bow. This will give an idea on the size. The bow planes are functional. More soon! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
parche Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Awesome, can't wait to see more. I want to break out my Gato at some point and knock it out, but I have too much moving in my future to deal with it. I've got some good resources at hand if you have questions.

niart17 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Yes indeed! Very nice. Didn't see this build, lurking beneath the surface. (see what I did there? LOL) Definitely looking forward to see this progress. Bill Quote Link to post Share on other sites
