Hi everyone, it’s been a long time coming but I finally signed up and thought I’d introduce myself. I’ve built models on and off for years, using all forms of media. I’m a serving Officer in the Royal Australian Navy so time for modelling can be rare. I’ve included a few of my built models below and look forward to building more.
1/400 Titanic diorama build for a friends daughter who loved the Titanic story.
1/700 HMAShips Hobart, Canberra and Anzac diorama. Heavily modified resin and PE kits. This now resides in the BAE office in Western Australia.
1/72 scratchbuilt HMAS Brisbane rc model. This is build with a fiberglass hull and abs sheet for the decks and superstructure and resin and brass fittings. Both motors operating independently with working lights, radars and even the helo rotors would spin. Now in the hands of a collector.
1/350 Chinese gunboat, an impulse build as I wanted to try a Victorian era warship. Sold to a private collector.
1/350 HMS Quorn, scratchbuilt from wood, card and brass. I built this for an ex girlfriend’s grandfather who was one of the few survivors of her sinking off Normandy 1944.
1/200 Trumpeter Titanic, which got me back into building models. This is also about to be shipped to a private collector.
Current build 1/72 HMS Mercury from Shipyard
