Jeff's CD Schnellboot***Finished***

Any subject, any scale, just so long as it fits within the outer diameter of a CD (or DVD, or BlueRay). And some of those famous UAMF extra ninja brownie bonus points if you can match the CD/DVD with the subject of the build.

Tiny and probably frustrating but I think that etch will look great once on there. Good luck.

I am pushing this one now. Having much problems with the PE. Carpet monster has some and I stretched sprue to replace some. Not sure but I have one last railing to do and I can mount this bad boy to the base. You will not see much 1/350 stuff from me in the future I am afraid.

I am just plain happy to advise that this kit is completed. While I resisted the urge to bin the whole lot, it finally came to conclusion. Was thinking that this would a simple subject to mount on a CD was not quite right. The main thing here is persevering through my first attempt at 1/350 scale marine subjects and still have a smile on my face. Members of my local band of pirates agree that I "needed a bigger boat" to cut my teeth on. But here she is with 6 hours to spare.

Thanks for looking.

Wow I love it, the base and wake look spot on.

Way to go Jeff, and the boat looks good as does the base.

You, my friend, made it 100% - complete and on-time, no extensions.

Jeff that is magnificent (if something that small can qualify for that word) and beautifully staged!

Next up USS New Jersey with full PE? :-D
