Nice work ken,certainly makes my corvette look very average. When I see the batcopter it always reminds me of the scene with a shark hanging on to batmans leg. (lucky he had some anti shark spray ). Man he took his time in the sun Had a dream to understand A single grain of sand He gave birth to poetry But one day will cease to be Greet the last light of the library...We were here!

Hi all I just feel like I should apologise to all the people following my other ship builds, I've not forgotten them, I'm just having so much fun with this I can't concentrate on them, is that selfish? Sorry, I will get back to them again, and to those who don't like what I'm doing to this, I blow raspberrys at you. Ken's the name modeling's the game.

The red has taken well over the black. Not always an easy combination without having to do the red lots of times to get the depth of colour. Very nice update. Hope you have a great holiday. Happy Modelling

Hi all doing some research (I've no idea of the size of these and can't seem to find overall dimensions) I thought these would help in stabilisation either side, would you all agree, 1/72 seahund type xxv11b, I wouldn't be modeling them as submarines more outriggers with maybe some cannons or lasers attached. Ken's the name modeling's the game.

Hi KP. loving what your doing, I am certainly not thinking hear goes that nutter again. I think what you do is very creative and at the end of the day we are all in this because we love building things Bat boat looks fab mate “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.” -Mark Twain

The hedgehog launcher looks good in red/black. Overall it all looks really right even though it started as something really different. You could imagine the film makers seeing this and giving batman a craft such as this in a future film. Very well done - an interesting one to follow along with. Happy Modelling

Hi all the next update Here is the standard weapon and the bat boat laser to replace it  Added some of the PE ( not sure whether to leave it as stainless or paint it red, just to add some interest instead of all black)  And more of the hated PE  Ken's the name modeling's the game.

Looking good Ken. My choice would be to leave those small panels silver as i think that would look good against the black parts. Happy Modelling
