Derrick Kus
Painesville, Ohio
Derrick built his Revell 1/350 scale U-boat U-552 out of the box. He painted with a mix of Tamiya spray paints, acrylics, and Vallejo Model Color—no airbrush in sight. The water stains and other weathering were achieved with washes and pastels. He bought the base from a craft store and mounted the submarine on it.
