Title: My 63-foot MIAMI SHIPBUILDING ARB-22 being built by Kyle Lord
Post by: TGarthConnelly on 12 Jun , 2020, 11:08

Hi Guys,


I thought you'd like to see some shots of a model being built for me by Kyle Lord ...


It's of a MIAMI SHIPBUILDING 63-foot Type 269 ARB which was used by the USN in Italy in 1944 for Spec Ops.

And, this is the real ARB-22:

I had two rocket launchers from Shapeways sent to Kyle.  He placed them on the model just to show me ...

Hi Garth,

That's a tidy build, coming along very nicely and I am sure you will be happy with the model when finished. What is the scale?

Also, do you have any other books you are writing?

Cheers,

Dougie

Hi Dougie,


It's 1:72.  The hull is from MTB HULLS on Gibraltar. 


Books?  Let's see, since 2008 - I have written the following:

And, currently, I am revising my book on the MAS boats.  And, what makes me proud is that Erminio Bagnasco himself is helping me to rewrite it.
