Cool.
I have the 1/72nd Huma Dornier Wal kit sitting in the stash with the eventual intent of doing it as a Miskatonic expedition aircraft.

The danish naval air service (Marinens Flyvevæsen) used a Dornier DO J/III Wal on Greenland 1938-1940.

Hi,
I finished up my build today.  Unfortunately, while playing around with trying to weather it I fear I may have gone a bit over board yesterday andwhile trying to clean it up a little some of the decals began to "wear" a little.  But I guess that may not be too bad a thing since it might make the decals match with the dirty fuselage and wings a little better.  Anyway, here are three images.  I messed around a little with some of the image settings just to see whether I could fade out the shadows a little, since I was thinking that maybe my light was might be too bright for the deep Antarctic.

Regards

Pat







PS.  After some feedback earlier I realize that the little squichy amoeba monster guy was probably too small based on the descriptions from the book, but I didn't have time to try and 3D print a larger one, since I have to do somemaintenance on my printer.  So for now I guess I'lljust assume that it is a juvenile Shoggoth instead of a fully grown one.

Iä! Iä! Cthulhu Fhtagn!

Very cool 😎 🥶🥶😁

Yes, very approprate. juvenile Shoggoth are notoriously curious, would be the first to go and check the new guests.

Hi,
Hereare a couple extra images of justthe airplane model that I took without my main light on, so that the shadows wouldn't be so severe.

I think the weathering looks great! The "ice sheet" is a pretty clever idea as well.

Thanks
