Beautifully done. Only one thing, the flag is incorrect. The White Ensign should be flown from the yardarm. The Union Flag is never flown at sea, only in harbour or at anchor, and only from the Jack staff at front of the ship.
@@archerry6457 I think it is to protect some of the sensors from getting damaged my downdraft from the helicopter by redirecting the air over them, this is just a guess, as I've never seen a duke class with them before
Bravo ... Piece of art that model! Thank you for the beautiful video dressed by nice music ..May I ask the types of glue you used on this model please? Thank you in advance...Keep on making art!
Can you make a kolkata class destroyer Shivalik class frigate Talwar class frigate Brahmaputra class frigate Delhi class destroyer Rajput class destroyer
Actually, weathering, especially rust on Naval vessels is very hard to render. Unlike a merchant vessel with a crew of 10 or so, HMS Monmouth has a crew of 185. About 30-40 of which will be in the Deck Department, and who will be tasked with maintaining paint and preventing rust. The paint finish will scan blotchy, but, that's from all the new paint put over old. Also, Naval vessels are not that long between Port visits. And the Captain will want his ship to look good in port. Further, ships often return to dockside every 4-5 weeks to take on or offload various technical items. And paint and repairs will occur that frequently as well.
The only RN warship to have black naming instead of red. It looks amazing by the way! I was on a Type 23 the other week, and this model looks as real as the one I was stood on!
Faltaron los limpia parabrisas del puente...jajaaja bromas aparte, solamente puedo decir INCREIBLE trabajo, digno de museos navales. FELICITACIONES, realmente haces una excelentes maquetas y haces ver que es tan facil manejar esos fotograbados....
Monmouth is the only RN vessel to carry her name in black as opposed to red due to the Dukedom of Monmouthshire being dissolved following the rebellion against King James II by the Duke of Monmouth. She also flies a black pennnant flag. Monmouth is the most decorated ship name in the entire RN. God save the Queen.
Would you ever do a 1/700? id love to see someone do the uss cole hobby boss with the artist hobby upgrade set. I know you've done the arleigh burke, but the cole is a very special ship. Rest in peace to all the sailors who went down on her. With your skills, you could probably even do a diorama of how the ship looked after the attack. It will be the first boat I do I believe it deserves more recognition. Thanks for all your videos and hardwork
For added authenticity you need to carefully cut out 100s of holes in the hull and superstructure and then glue the the parts you cut out back in again to replicate the 100s of new plates inserted because of the excess corrosion found on her last refit.
@@studioblueocean4590 ah I thought you'd maybe just used a translator or something. You'd use a hose and pump to distribute water though 👍 Great build too.👏
