That looks awesome Lucas - The sea effect looks really good and I like the weathering on the sub.

Oh, a Biber, now there is a bad idea leading to an interesting machine. I like the metal tones on the torpedos.

The Beaver! Very nicely done! Excellent Dio work as well.
So many models.... so little time.

Many thanks. :)

Something about the water: Its artificial water from Busch. Just treat your surface with some suitable colors (blue, torquoise, green etc.) and pour some thin (!) layery over it by using an old brush. This will take a while until its dry (in this case it took me four days), but it really is worth the waiting. You can play with the effects - thicker layers will cause a milky surface. I think Ill use this very good water effect again for the Akagi build, when its time to build it.

Interesting that - I'll take a look at it when I get a chance to do some water.

One thing you may have to take care about is where the dio takes place. Some water is more greenish, on the other hand tropical beach dios will become more blueish etc. ;)
