My U-96 1:44 Scale - Page 2

Yes, Hitman. You have right. My next u-boat will definitely have darker shade of grey in the underwater part of the hull.

Great models mate, some fantastic looking weathering on the hull. Is it just me or does anyone else think that the first pic makes the model look huge? It kinda looks like its actually on a mat on the ground taking up most of the lawn, rather than on a small table.

The weathering is well done.

btw this looks more like the revell 1:72 and not 1:44 or am I missing something here.

The 1/144 is scaled down 1/72 model. Down to little detail.

2019 · 07-04-08, 05:11 PM

Ah so it's the 1:144.
It still looks pretty detailed almost like the 1:72

Siara · 07-04-08, 05:26 PM

Looks like the typo in the topic title. Should be 1/144.
In the 1/44 scale that boat would be 152 cm long.

Damn

Indeed its a 1:144. Stupid mistake in the title. :hmm: I must change that somehow. Can i have a request to admin to change 1:44 to 1:144 in the title?

As you are the thread creator, you are able to do it yourself.

just ''double-click'' just on the right of the Title, this will give you the same thing like when you rename a file on your computer.

try it

Im trying but nothing happens ;/ I have no idea how to do it

nikimcbee · 08-03-08, 12:27 AM

I just bought this kit!

I'm going to build the U-96:hmm: 1:144 scale.

nikimcbee · 08-03-08, 02:01 AM

Wow, I'm really impressed by the quality of this kit.

It is very detailed and all of the parts fit nicely.

Siara · 08-03-08, 02:09 AM

It is basically scaled down 1/72 kit, for people with small houses.:rotfl:

nikimcbee · 08-03-08, 11:46 AM

I've put around 12 hours of work into it. I'm trying someting different with my weathering painting. The conning tower is quite the project, lots 'o parts

Siara · 08-03-08, 11:55 AM
