1/700 HDMS Alsin Y345 at Frederikshavn Naval Base

Post by Timmy C »

The infamous Danish Arvak-class gun tug (the Danish navy's StanFlex modular system makes it easy for them to move systems like the 76mm Oto Melara around), built using the bonus model in Dodo Models' Iver Huitfeldt frigate kit. The scratchbuilt pier represents Frederikshavn Naval Base's main pier, updated sometime around the mid-2010s.

Vehicles from Modelium's Vehicle Set C. Unfortunately, being a Japanese company, their bus door is on the wrong side for Denmark, so come up with a creative story!

Beautiful little diorama. Reminds me of this vessel from the 1860s.

That's a super little diorama. I like the 1/700 scale figures: are they from one of the aircraft carrier deck crew sets?

Thanks folks.

Donald: the figures are from Eduard's IJN Naval Figures set, and they do come pre-coloured. I've never found a reason to use the gold/yellow uniforms until now, since Danish naval uniforms are indeed a very army-like camou scheme!
