video of MGB 81
For no particular reason, but I thought you might enjoy his video about the seatrials of MGB 81 t, with a very (narrow) walkaround
or perhaps this one about MTB 102

Thank you very much Foute Man.
Very interesting footage. It makes me wanting to revisit my models of those types.

After a little detour
Dear All;
After a little detour of vintage airplane models I was able to finish the T-14. I did the torpedoes and it was the hardest part! Soon to be released. One wonders about these combatants with one 25 mm gun against a late Elco with at least 4 mg, plus a 20mm, a 37mm and a 40mm! Happy modeling, stay safe.

IJN T-14 torpedo boat
Dear All:
Here is the IJN T-14 torpedo boat class in 1/200. The real one was around 15 m, smaller than the Italian MAS, Let me know if you like it.

This PT project started with me probably last century when I got a plas... model by Hawk of a scale close to 1/200. I traced the deck and sides of the hull and reduced them to 1/400. At that time I didn't know i was a papermodeler and wanted to use styrene to build the model but didn't progress. Later, I did it in paper very much as I would have done in styrene with manila card and painted it (no colored printing). That is the model in the top left. Then after many, many years, I started this thread and designed some Elcos as paper models. And then Wayne came out with a full series of the 80 footer covering most standard schemes. I didn't realized how well it could mimetized the deck in sea blue scheme! What I want to say to new modelers, or not so new, is that some times your model takes some time to arrive, and when you decide to do it yourself, a wonderful model from a great designer may be arriving shortly! .............................Not to discourage model designing.

Thank you JSC
I have to mention that also big thanks to the people at JSC that have been providing consistently models in 1/400 and inspiration for us. In particular number 23 that was seminal in my collection and served the basis for my first recolor/adaptation before I knew I was a papermodeler.
Finally, I completed the Vosper MTB adding the armament. I hope you like them. Last edited by wireandpaper; 05-02-2020 at 01:33 AM.

thank you for your kind words addressed to the JSC. It means a lot to us. We will try to keep our modelers happy for many more years!

The prototype for HMS Mimi and HMS Toutou are almost completed and just need a few adjustments. I still have some questions about the layout of the crew deck. Any suggestions? Thank you very much for the valuable information. Nevertheless, I am not sure that these very successful gunboats belong here, since their very important actions were in a lake. Their history is fascinating including the commander of the operation: Captain Geoffrey Basil Spicer-Simson. Here is a short recount of the operation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5cp...-nOoNfTXHz2X1Q And a longer version (almost a mockumentary) that you may watch while cleaning the dishes: https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q...BC7E3455DF77DB ps: Yes, this is going to be a simple one pager model, but so far the only I know about these forgotten heroes.
