Bruno Van Hecke’s Ships

[wireandpaper]

Hello, in the papercraft field everyone associates Bruno Van Hecke/ Scissors and Planes with aircraft models. Nevertheless, he has done a few designs of ships like the fleet tug USS Navajo. I enlarged it from 1/1250 to 1/400 and built it straight from the paper. If you want a more detailed model of this ship, get the one from Gerry from Ecardmodels, also in 1/400. Later, I will add just a few details like the main mast, flagstaffs, guns, and some touches of paint. I just wanted to showcase this creation by Master Bruno. After the war, the Cherokee class (originally known as the Navajo class) served in many navies including those of: Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Indonesia, Pakistan, Peru, Republic of China, Turkey, and of course the United States Coast Guard.

Yes indeed! Bruno's Scissors and Planes models covers and has models for all tastes. It's a shame that for now he doesn't sells directly his models because the entire spaceship, armored vehicles, cars, sci-fi, etc they will never be on Ecardmodels because of time for upload this kits. Waiting for your complete build. Very nice done Pablo!!!

Thank you Tony for stopping by.
Continuing with Bruno’s USS Navajo, I made simple additions: armament from the Digital Navy Admirable, masts of wire and toothpicks, flags, and few paint retouches. A few licenses regarding the armament and boom position. I hope you let me know if you like it.

Quick and dirty build of the U-Boat Type VIIC by Bruno in need of some railing. Originally in 1/500 enlarged to 1/400.

Great build! So the ship models that bruno has done are only available through him ? Is there a catalog of the ships he's done?

Although it is not the last list of his models, here you can see the naval material that Bruno has designed.

Something that can also be highlighted is that Bruno makes rockets, for example the Saturn V and I also saw that he made the space shuttle.
