A reconstruction of a lost MSW buildlog with photos.

This kit was an "attic find" from friends. And it was a fun project that I ultimately enjoyed for 3 winters. It actually became an experiment to see whether I could find plastic ship model building interesting or not.
Questions that arise regarding the construction will, of course, be answered.

painting the copper plating

What does weathered copper look like? Some old war ammunition, once found in our backyard, served as an example.
White base, and then various shades of green
