OUTSTANDING! It really looks fantastic Martin. I love the preshading you did. Your photos really show it off. Well done! Your weathering is nice too, not too much just a hint.

Truly impressive Martinn - you have made an incredible job of the weathering and the rigging.... Superb!...Jim

Thanks, glad you like it!

Martin,

-just looking at the boat brings the "Das Boot" soundtrack to mind - it is playing in my head now. Very nice.

Alarmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Martin, that looks fantastic! I think the weathering is very subtle and excellently applied. Well done!

Vinnie

Superb job Martin!! You did a fantastic job on the weathering. I absolutely love it! Thanks for being a part of this campaign.

Not much to add to the comments already made;
She looks just stunning. The weathering is fabulous.

How did you do the vague spots of rust on the ballast tank panels? They look a bit to irregular to be sprayed on.

So, when are you starting your second one?
(you've still got decals for about 2 more subs don't you?)

Looking forward to your entry for the dreadnoughts campaign!

Martin,

superb model

I have buid this kit 10+ times and still not achived such a great painting.

I did this during the wash.....normally when you use a wash, the paint moves to seams etc. But when you use a lot of paint, it will not move to seams etc, and you can use if for dirty looking surfaces. The colour of your model changes a bit, and in this case I used it for dirty, rusty looking surfaces.

Lol I hope this makes a bit sense.....I wish I could say it in Dutch (pm me if you don't understand me)

I hardly every use my airbrush for weathering.....just for dust




Thanks! I'm glad you like it! I've seen the subs which you built for DDD and they look very very good mate!
