A Fixture
When it comes to craftmanship, and in a very tiny scale, I have to admire the scale shipwrights. As you can see, they can put a lot of detail into a very small scale.
I counted two IJN Yamatos, one Bismark, a few aircraft carriers (one just as big as the Yamatos) plus a few others of types I am not familiar with.
The top one is a vessel lowering a Remotely Operated Submersible, over a ship wreck. There was another with a submarine doing a ballistic missile launch from under the surface.
As for doing crew, I find it hard enough putting eyeballs on a 1/9 face.
Painting 1/700 scale figures (and making them 3-d) is another skill set again!
