Colombo Express, Revell, 1:700 - Final works 

Thanks a lot! It was real pleasure to built this kit!

Haha, funny how inspiration works. I've been playing a procedurally generated horror game set on a cargo ship called Monstrum, so came looking for a ship model that I can paint as Freddy Krueger's crib, a real rust, mould and shit stained hellhole. I build warships in 1/350, and would recommend that scale for most everything (much better detail, a better size-anything smaller than an aircraft carrier is too small in '700th): but a huge cargo ship is an exception. I wouldn't do this in '350-much too big, 700th's ideal.

Tanks a lot!!!

@@FORTworkshop Such patience! Many large container vessels are horrible nowadays. but also, most have beautiful hulls. This is one of ht better looking classes. :-) Just ann opinion. :-)

Hi! To paint the hull I used an airbrush. With usual brush it will be difficult to achive such surface.

Модель хорошая, но у меня был случай, что попались детали корпуса с недолитым бульбом и кормой. Пришлось писать в поддержку Revell (на офиц. сайте), выслали новый корпус. Правда пришлось месяц подождать :)
