Nearly :-) I want to work with RTNS Maeklong but Icant find any information on her eventhogh I'm Thai :-)

Another hint,Boat I design is Japanese's boat in WWII

Continue on building. Now I working on super structure (Please correct me if I say something wrong about Ship's word)

Cut it out


Glue together


And attach to front deck

Sorry posted in wrong place.

And then did it again - I'll just creep out the back way.

Well if it's Japanese then the shapes of your model mean it must be one of the two Hashidate class gunboats.

Maurice, you are quite good. Yes, she is one of Hashidate class. She is Uji :-) in 1/400 scale gun boat will be a little bit tiny (approx 19 cm length), some part is small to handle. Let's see what I can do with her.

Today still in super structure, another part of super structure.

Great choice for a model, Nobi, and a great-looking model!

Thank you very much, Don. This is my first boat's design and I think I need to improve more on next boat's design. I thinking to increase scale to 1/250 to make her easy to build. Below is picture of 3D model render.

Welcome and thank you very much for all suggestion.

Very remiss of me NOBI.
I forgot to say that I think it's is a good piece of design and an attractive model of an interesting subject.
Do you think that a central, lengthwise, vertical backbone might help prevent any future tendency for banana shaped bending of the hull? Just a suggestion.

Like you I find it is very, very difficult to find information on Thai ships.

Thank you very much for your suggestion, Maurice. I will apply your suggestion on my design.

I need too find more information on Thai's ship but look like RTN (Royal Thai Navy) is a mysterious. Very very hard to find drawing on RTN's ship.

Today is still on super structure. Very tiny part and make my eye stress when build. so my build is very slow :-)
