R.N. Cascino



Hi All,
here one of my last ship.
It's the italian destroyer General A. Cascino. Built in 1920 and sunk on september 8th 1943.
It was used mainly as convoy escort in Mediterranean sea.

The model is the well known Prestinari By zio Prudenzio.
I modified it in camo version using Gimp software.
Railings and ladders by Darf
The scale is reduced to 1/400
Comments all welcome
Ps I omitted naval anchor in order to use the ship in a little diorama, with ship anchored.

The second photo, comparing it to the ink pen, is what blows you away. Shows your amazing detail of such a small scale. Either that, or you have a talent for making giant ink pens!
