Eye Candy - 1/150 ship and Shanghai waterfront

[GrumpyOldMan]

Hi All

Just came across this ship that's become available:-



It's from a film about the Chinese Civil War:-

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3038664/

Here's a pic with a person to give some scale:-



And here's some shots of a diorama of the Shanghai waterfront made with the ship (needless to say I'm very jealous  ):-



Info about the model here:-

I've found the cheapest at about $200A including shipping but still too rich for my poor wallet 

Cheers

ooooh that is nice, but as you say at that price a bit too many pennies

Flipping heck that's good!

[Westmarcher]

Wholeheartedly agree. Terrific.

(Yet the crazy thing is, if that dock scene was shown in a film we'd say, "Oh, that's just a model!"  .... )

Great diorama that would be perfect for some skirmish wargames. Sadly the ship is too big and too expensive for me.

Not really cost-effective, then.

Nice but too rich at that money.  For engagements with ships and aircraft I revert to 6mm.   I currently have a VBCW campaign in both 10mm and 6mm. The 6mm allows more space for items like big ships, but 10mm has the detail - more pleasing to the eye.   And at my age the eyesight becomes an issue.
