    Great looking model! I was on the PCF at the museum in San Diego and it was amazing. Next time I go I'll take the actual ride they offer. https://sdmaritime.org/visit/the-shi...16-swift-boat/

    Detroit diesels are finished and look good to me. Same methods but needed to be chopped up to fit in the resin printer.

    PCF SWIFT in 1:12 scale

    While I wait for sub parts, I thought I would share my next surface runner. Building this to go with my PBR in the same scale. Model is 50" long and will feature a near identical build to the PBR. Scale printed Detroit diesels, weapons and fittings. I am even swapping the figures between them. Twin Tacon .32 outrunners offer plenty of quiet power.
