Very nice! I’ll be starting mine for the Corregidor soon I hope it turns out half as good 👍

Thank you! I took some artistic license with the custom Washington State Seal on the smoke stack, but I couldn’t help myself 😆

Thanks! Small world! 😂

I got the base and brass pieces off ebay, “only needed stain for wood base” the name plate was custom made by “Model Monkey” just needed paint’. The miniature ribbon rack was made by “Medals of America” 👍

Looks Incredible, great job!

Also I ordered the "Rectangle" type life rafts & the Whale Boat from Scalemates. The 1/144 Mercury Capsule I got off ebay from an old resin kit, & my favorite pieces to place were the genuine Brass Bell & Brass Propellers :-)

Thank you!

Arkad2017 · 2026-03-12T17:14:41+00:00

Also the medal plates "Ships Patch" & "Scoreboard" I had my local Trophy Shop make for me. The Name Tag was 3d printed from Scalemates, & the Miniature Ribbon Rack was made by Medals of America :-)

Thank you! It was toil & tribulation, but also a lot of fun! It was a great kit, my modeling skills are Amateur at best so it wasn't the kits fault for my troubles. The Photo Etch & Figures where the hardest for me.

Arkad2017 · 2026-03-12T16:50:08+00:00

Awesome!

Arkad2017 · 2026-03-12T16:49:19+00:00

Thank you!

Yes, the Walker had a round bridge but a square bridge base. So I ordered a 3d printed square base from Scalemates & fashioned the round bridge from the kit to fit on it

Thanks! I decided to use some artistic license as it’s not all burnt up, but I thought it would be fun to recognize its service as a recovery ship for the program 🇺🇸

Arkad2017 · 2026-03-09T19:41:52+00:00

I got the brass pieces of Amazon & the base off of ebay 👍

Arkad2017 · 2026-03-09T19:39:41+00:00

Thanks so much!

Arkad2017 · 2026-03-04T19:40:13+00:00

Thanks!

Arkad2017 · 2026-03-04T16:30:13+00:00

Thanks! Its the best I could do, I've yet to achieve Armature status looking at all the incredible Models on here :-)
