Here’s a few shots of the ship itself built out of the box. The original box art and decals are for the Jeremiah O’Brien. I will need to source some white letters to update the name for my Liberty Ship though. This is a nice kit, assembles well with no issues, just enough detail for the overall size of the model, and options for full or waterline hull. MCW paints, AK weathering washes, really nothing else for a quick 2 week build. I’m working on a base for it so I’ll update this when it’s complete.

And here’s a few finished shots on the water, in Baltimore Harbor.

Very nice. Love the hull weathering, and the background photo is quite effective.

Thanks guys! Appreciate the kind words :thumbs_up_1:

I presented it to her new owner last weekend. Bob was super excited to have the model of his Dad’s ship already!
