“This model depicts Lucky the tugboat on its last trip before scrapping,” Alex says. He removed all the molded details on a Revell 1/108 scale Harbor Tugboat, replaced them with scratchbuilt items, and painted it with Tamiya and Vallejo acrylics. Extensive artist-oil washes and paint chipping applied with a sponge hint at the working vessel’s long career.
