That is totally amazing!! What scale did you say? Its way beyond the highest setting on my loupe.
To prevent being called an 'expert', screw something up good every now and again.

Yes, it's 1/700. Kostas does stuff in that scale that many of us can't achieve in 1/48.

Excellent work Kostas. The scenery especially looks very real. One tiny detail you seemed to have missed though; the Galaxy has a 'kneeling' nose undercarriage and if I'm not mistaken, the rear loading ramp is not used when the nose ramp is in operation. Otherwise,its awesome work!

Awesome work Kostas. You get a great sense for the massive size of these aircraft. Are these from the Skywave kits?

This is just absolutely superb! Nicely done.
It is a fact that under equal conditions, large-scale battles and whole wars are won by troops which have a strong will for victory, clear goals before them, high moral standards, and devotion to the banner under which they go into battle.
