My one completion for 2016


Recommended Posts

M/S Batory, Mirage kit, 1/500 scale.

Built as assault transport at Sicily, July 1943

Tom's Modelwork generic railings set plus TONS of scratch built details.

Rigged with a combination of stretched sprue, EZ Line, Uschi fine elastic rigging and one piece of ceramic filament running between the mast tops for its stiffness.

Paint is Model Master and Colour Coats. All of the windows from the main deck up are masked and painted.

The kit was molded of a brittle plastic with tiny parts. I had to use a razor saw to remove almost all of them from the sprues and still broke quite a few.
