Battleship model from scratch

Postby Masato » Wed Dec 18, 2013 5:04 pm

Unbelievable -- how did you get the numbers on the front? Is it a sticker? Or did you paint it?

So cool man, I have never seen anyone do this kind of thing before.

This is a surprise present for someone I thought I remembered you saying?

The numbers were a dry press decal. You place it over where you want in and then rub it with your fingernail or something and it presses it on.

It's a Christmas present for my brother.

I'll take some more pictures of it once it is in the display case.

Hey johnkilo - did you give it for Christmas? How did it go??

Did you drop it by accident upon delivery? Did the dog chew it to bits during the night? lolol

Tell us a story!!

Haha, no, nothing bad happened to it. My brother said it was the best gift anyone ever gave him. He's going to buy a light to mount over it. I thought about incorporating a light into the case, but we were running out of time to finish it.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone, I'm glad you all liked it.
