 1/350 USS Gearing DD-710 (Scratchbuilt)
This is my latest ship build by Pierre and will be seen at Telford 2006. Included are some in-process photo's to show how the ship was built. 

Pierre writes that his favorite sources for his projects are:
  • The Floating Drydock
  • Warship Pictorials
  • Anatomy of the Ship series
  • Squadron Signal Publications
  • Norman Friedman's Illustrated Design History Books
  • Larry Sowinsky (Pacific War)
  • Gold Medal Models Products
  • and of course L'Arsenal
I also took a lot of pictures of models from Gibb's and Cox in the Maritime Museum in Washington
