the sealant is transparent after dry???
Looking forward for the result. i dont have ship, I planing to make a sea diorama for my neca kaiju.

yes, its state clear silicone

whoa...ur yamato almost complete...
can't wait to receive and start mine

water base done, considering my work is not perfect since this is my 1st time make diorama, any c&c are welcome

Looking Good. Thank for sharing, will try to look for the transparent sealant.

started this project last week
hope this will not be difficult build

nice f18, the only hard part for jet is the sealant/putty the gap line between upper body & lower body , & hydraulic wheel part.

yes..i agree..
so far gaps on this hasegawa are forgiving... wheel part needs to be strong and sturdy..

and BTW, these came in the mail today...
wanna try out something new..
not sure when will able find time to complete these

nice ship, but i dont collect ship except space battle ship.

Still slowly building up my carrier fleet, those plane is insane to put together. All landing gear, propeller and cockpit all need to be assemble.

fuuuu....so tiny

look like i should build a ship, i like aircraft carrier. make a survey..then the price is afordable, but the box really Huge, shipping gonna cost a bomb.

i aim for this 1/700 , box size 24" , hope shipping wont cost a bomb.
1/500 (36")........ 1/ 350 (46") both included motor.

from HLJ if IJN carriers, scale 1/700 cost around RM70~80..shipping around RM30+ for EMS
if online shop from HK, i think cost would be a little bit lower..

big box easy kena kastam, that y i focus on 1/700 instead of 1/500.
once kena kastam need to paid 60-70.

edit: RM 70-80, can u provided the link, i search in HLJ, but dont have such a price.

Oh, u mean IJN carriers, i c ic.

There this one for example:
http://www.hlj.com/product/FUJ43028/Nav

but shipment could be more around 40-60 for this using EMS.

so far my shipment of yamato n musashi, no issue with kastam..

1/700 IJN carriers (kit price) a bit exp than US carriers (when compair tamiya kit)

example below

IJN Shokaku

but aircraft carrier should be more heavy.

Especially the shipping cost.

maybe pit road kit got many extra stuff..this one can build full hull...
this tamiya carrrier quite light...only 300gm++..but only waterline

BTW, you can try SAL (registered) to keep the shipping cost down and avoid kastam..
