Finally got around to adding the 1/144 scale figures...never again will I attempt painting on this scale. I could hardly see them to paint! It has also had a light oil wash in places.

So, some piccies of them on the landing craft being buzzed by a Zero. The B&W picture was faffed about with in Paintshop Pro the idea was to give a blurred film type action shot.

LOL, the figures are RAF, so all jolly cool, what, what...could I hell as get some 1/144 scale American sailors, besides they are that small unless you are a rivet-counter you will never know.

Hi Si,

Looking great and as mentioned, the second photo is the best with the over-head shot which shows the waves better...

Nice mate. Great little dio. What did you use to make the water?
Hi mate, glad you like it. To do the water I first sprayed the base with a metallic light blue, apt for the pacific sea area, once dry I then used silicone sealant-I use the back of a teaspoon to shape the waves, to get the peaks you use the tip of the spoon and pull up. Once dry it is a case of adding some white paint.

Si:)
