HYDRO PLANER.....




Friends..Colleagues..modelers..it was my long dream to complete the Cape Gull, the Coast guard ship of US Navy, of 50 s..i was seraching for the 3 view and proportion, but couldnt find..so i made the proportional drawings in my PC, and started work..one of the fascinating thing related to this craft is the crew cabin..its very nice and distinctive..

as usual, i started with thermocol..
shaping work..progress..
