| Here are a number of photos of my recently finished 1/350 Tamyia Prince
of Wales. This is my first attempt at both building a model ship
and using photoetch and I've been working at it on and off for about 18
months. I didn't even know about the existence of photoetch until
I was almost ready to do the final assembly so it was all retro-fitted
(something I'll be avoiding in future as you end up doing quite a bit of
damage to the kit in the process). The sides of the conning tower
are upside down but I didn't notice until it was far to late to try and
rectify the problem |
The Photoetch used includes...
-
WEMs KGV class set
-
WEM Extra fine bars and railings
-
GMM Hose reels
The rigging is fine nylon thread I found in a Haberdashery. |
