Fleet Admirals in record time
When member's make Fleet Admiral and Admiral's with 8 boats in two years or less...ya that's working the system or cheating. See a photo of the current Admirals and Admirals to be who have not created anything but spam and who have accomplished high ranks attached. Alessandro, Roy, Southport(soon to be), EDw, Nickthe steam(soon to be), I am sure there are a few more. Congratulations boys. Contact me for your mail in University degree in any masters you like. Just $10. You can be anything you could never achieve in real life. Well like my dad always said... " the best Captain is always standing on the beach"

    Wolle,

    You are missing the point. It is about all the fodder that some post here who are insecure and need a title other than ODD. If you want to post photos of farm equipment then do it on a farm site not on one that says Model-boats.com. If you really feel the need to share your photos from Elbe, make more friends on FB.

    I understand it already.
    I'm not on Facebook and the like.
    It's even worse there.
    I'm in this forum because everyone here respects each other and doesn't insult each other. That seems to be over. What a pity.
    I have registered in many modelling forums and can only say that it's not just about modelling everywhere.
    Nevertheless, I will not insult or judge anyone here. We are all unique and that's a good thing. Otherwise it would be very, very boring here on the globe on which we live.
    As I said.... nobody is forcing you to read anything and if it is approved by the administrator, it won't be so wrong.
    By the way, if I post something about the Elbe, it will definitely be about a ship.
    And now settle down again.

    The balsa planking seems a strange choice for such a big model as it is easy to dent in use - or even in transit!

    Resin and fiberglass it.

    I like the look of your Catalina, Doug, do you fly her and if so do you fly her from land or water, being an amphibian? I have a hankering for a seaplane just to run around the lake, not flying, but whether I'll get round to it now, I don't know.
    I saw a Catalina at an airshow, years ago and was surprised what a big plane she was and I had a distant American relative who was an airgunner on one in the Korean war.

    Cheers, Nerys

    Very impressive - your attention to detail is something else. Wish she was on my coffee table. How did you make the base and stand? Thank you, Gregg
