PQ 17 on a petri dish!

Very nicely done although I think the model would benefit from interior detailing and open hatches etc to show it off

I'm not sure should the interior be black or green

And the lower wing should be in DSG and Slate Grey

I thought it looked wrong

One thing I was thinking about, would printed card wings look better at this small scale?

You would be able to print roundels directly on them, which would be good, and they would be a better scale thickness. Why not print off a few, without taking the plastic ones off.

That sounds like a good plan to me.

That's a cunning plan I like it

I thought it was a good idea at the time, so using my hair I have attempted to rig the little 1/600 scale Walrus

That's so cute.

Are you sure you can spare the hairs?

Apparently blonde hair is the finest, almost 20% thinner than auburn/ ginger and 30% thinner than brunette. So why not approach blonde girls and ask if you can have some of their hair.....I can't see how that could possibly end badly!

What could possibly go wrong with that plan?

With my CBK and RN GB builds my bench has turned into a Naval Dockyard.

From the front to rear:
Frog HMS Torquay being converted to HMS Plymouth.
AIrfix HMS Daring being updated to her final state
Airfix Warspite being backdated to her Jutland state
Airfix Belfast being converted to HMS Southampton

Arrrr, shiver me timbers, a fine looking collection of vessels being built Cap'n Splash!

Arrr matey, they be coming along fine. Just waiting for a spring tide and fair wind.
