First and foremost to all, aplogize for vanishing in thin air for awhile. Just that sometimes I can be so "lost" in work. Even with my 18 days R&R back in Malaysia time travel so fast. I wish my rotation in 60 days in Sudan was the same....time travel slows.

Till then enjoy your hobby.

A mighty fleet you have there Kamarulaz72. Ever considered setting them up in a dio especially your massive Imperial Navy which would make quite a sight steaming together in open sea or even in a dock.

I'm afraid I'm not much of a ship modeller but I'm sure Silantra or Agrillion who build ships will be able to offer constructive criticisms. I do have some interest in subs. What scale and who is the maker of the German subs you featured in one of the pics? They appear from the photo to be waterline sets.

wow... that's a lot of ship... that HMS Eagle, which kit is it anyway?

kamarul

u got almost the world top fleet out there...i wonder where do u keep them most of the time

maybe away from spy sattelite..hehe

keep it up bro...

Cool, what manufacture is it?

Hi. I am new to model building. I recently assembled a 1:72 Mig-3. I used paint brushes and enamel paint for my model. The end result was rather patchy and i felt the paint was a liitle too thick. I used the paint straight from the bottle. Should I have diluted it first? If so, what ratio should i use? What do you normally use? Please advice.

Another question, after painting do you normally place a after coat? Thanks.
