There was a modeler on MSW, can't remember his name, whose maxim was "smaller is better". Of course, it's hard to do when you are looking at a ship which is already at a small scale. That's why many of the museum pieces are 1:50 scale minimum. Keith. | ||

The good news is I learned a bit about carving along the way. To go any smaller I think I would go with a different type of design. I also decided not to bring it down the side edges as it gets to busy looking. ![]() ![]() | ||
