Nice! I've got this one on my bench now. I used thin clear plastic scrap from some packaging for those bridge windows...😊
That was my original plan but I couldn’t find any :/ Thanks for watching!
Very nice work! I think she comes off in exactly what you were looking for.
Thanks! I'm glad you think so its always hard to tell when you have been staring at it for so long
Apologies for the re-upload, I uploaded the wrong one :/
Regarding the windows. They used to physically remove them. It was standard practice (In combat zones) to remove the windows between dawn and dusk. The concern was a enemy warship might detect you from the sun reflecting off the panes of glass
Makes sense, thanks!
Great work as always
Thanks, Saber!
Top weathering technique from a flames of war and 40k painter, Get some nuln oil washes, and coat the entire thing, once dried, Dry brush in your details, to dry brush effectively dab some paint on your brush (barely any at all 1/2mm) and dab on cloth until you cant see 90% of the paint, then rub against your finger and dust over ALL the edges of your model. Too little is better than too much, Takes a few hours considering the size of your build but it will help massively. And dont forget you need to paint every surface 100% how you want before doing this. (bare in mind white/gray undercoat is best as black is useless for detailing) EG floor planks, Bouys, Life jackets, Ect.
this brings depths and detail to every surface bringing it to life. take a google at nuln oil washes or similar, and Dry brushing techniques from Flames of war. Perfect combo for war builds.
I appreciate the info, thanks!
Cool model.
Thanks!
You did a good job until the weathering unless you are going for it coming to San Diego for repairs.most of the time even coming into port was not that weathered.most of the battle damage was on the starboard side and covered and the rust or most of it was painted.the sun fade was there.now how I know this is my dad served on the Frisco during WW 2 and his captain would not have that ship come in to port looking like a British ship.they were constantly painting and cleaning that ship when they were not fighting.you might find rust around the anchors and crap trees but they where not as bad as people weather them.
I do agree with you about people overweathkng ships, however if you look at photos of San Frans return to Pearl. You’ll see that both the port and the starboard side are feather beat up. This was more of a depiction of of her right after the battle
Edit: this was one of the reference shots I was using www.history.navy.mil/content/history/museums/nmusn/explore/photography/wwii/wwii-pacific/wwii-pacific-guadalancanal/naval-battles/naval-battle-guadalcanal/80-g-40250.html
@@acescalemodeling will not disagree with that photo.i do have some of those photos when it came in San Diego for repairs.at the end of the war all who severed on the Frisco got a album book of the Frisco and pics of her coming into San Diego for repairs.like I mentioned only after the battle it came into port like that.
