1/350 Academy Oliver Hazard Perry
Re: 1/350 Academy Oliver Hazard Perry
That is such a lovely build. A pleasure to swipe through the pages and watching it evolve!
When the sun of culture hangs low even dwarfs throw shadows.

My favorite part, watching the master make water
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

I know that “make water” is not a phrase commonly heard anymore...
"Surely I have made my meaning plain? I intend to avenge myself upon you, Admiral. I have deprived your ship of power, and when I swing 'round, I intend to deprive you of your life."

Re: 1/350 Academy Oliver Hazard Perry
Thanks guys,
I am trying a new technique for a calm water effect. I saw a young fellow use aluminum foil to make waves, but that got me thinking, what I use the foil to make the ripples and my old technique for the swells and wave frequency.
So here it is so far.
I crumpled the foil and glued it to the sanded and molded Styrofoam base. Once it was dry, I cut the excess around the base. I then applied medium acrylic gel to smooth out the harshness of the foil and provide an acrylic base to paint. I then sprayed the first coat of blue to the foil but actually need to glue the ship to the base before I continue the spraying.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting the head off a Hydra, two more take it’s place.

Amazing..
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Re: 1/350 Academy Oliver Hazard Perry
Thanks fellas,
I glued the kit to the base and added some gel at the hull and for the bow and stern wake swells. These will dry clear and will be painted blue, then turquoise in spots for under surface turbulence.
I'll have to admit, it is looking nice. Maybe something to take to the Nats in 2021

That is looking truly superb!
I love that technique for the sea base - I might have to try that!
