22 April 2013 : Today I proudly present Model Maniac Page 68 - Part B. In this Part, "Pramuk Kiatjarungphan" presents three new warships he built in this month. Starting from
USSR Aircraft Carrier MINSK 1:550 from Trumpeter, followed by USS San Francisco CA-38 1944 1:350 also from Trumpeter and topping it off with HMS Repulse 1941 again from
Trumpeter + LionRoar's Multi-Media Upgrade Set (PE parts, resin parts, brass barrels) + MK1's Wooden Deck. As always, I hope you'll enjoy viewing.
I'd like to thank for all kind feedbacks and compliments that we received concerning Page 68 - Part A. They are very encouraging
and they inspire us to keep producing quality models & dioramas and showing finest quality pictures. Comments and suggestions
are welcome in my Model Maniac Forum

201 - 240 : Trumpeter's USSR Aircraft Carrier MINSK 1:550 - by "Pramuk Kiatjarungphan"
241 - 278 : Trumpeter's USS San Francisco CA-38 1944 1:350 - by "Pramuk Kiatjarungphan". It's really hard to believe that he could finish two ships, i.e. the Minsk above
and this one in just three days. He got them from me on 1 April afternoon and returned them finished on 5 April morning!. He had only 4 nights + 3 days or around 84 hours
and this included the time for eating, sleeping and doing all other things. It's surely not an overstatement to say that he's a wonder builder!
279 - 314 : Trumpeter's HMS Repulse 1941 + LionRoar's Multi-Media Upgrade Set (PE parts, resin parts, brass barrels) + MK1's Wooden Deck - by "Pramuk Kiatjarungphan"
and in my Facebook Group named Model Maniac
Even the most complicated ship with the most intricated detail-up sets imaginable like this one took him only 16 days. He got it on 5 April and returned it finished on 22 April.
For my other ship builders this would take a year or two. I could have taken more pictures if I had more battery power, it was an abrupt ending just like the real ship.
