    The 1:72 Foxtrot by Jon Evans

    Jon purchased the hulls from me a couple of months ago, to make a static model for a client. As you can see, he's done a wonderful job of the model. I hope we can persuade him to post more photos in the near future.

    How did he cut out those small vents? Amazing.

        Very nice, I particularly like the way he's used different shades on the panels to give it a lived in look.

        I think the vents are photoetched brass, aren't they?

          I think the detail you see is from the original etch work I paid for and sent to RPM. I'll take a detailed photo of the model hull and post that in a couple of days!

              That photo-etch work was my contribution to that collaborative project. Does he have any pictures of the finished deck? I'm curious to see what the final result was from that aspect.

                I can attest to Joel's excellent PE work on that project. The deck, limber hole and other PE items he did was very, very good work.
