Custom Made Decor :-)

Ok so im looking for someone who can make custom made decorations i have a them for my 525 gallon reef, but it involves some custom made pieces of decoration ( think of old battle ship) But i have no clue on what it should be made out of and or who could make it. So any input on where to start would be great. If it seems confusing let me know and i will retype the idea in other ways

Ty beagle

If you want a ship, you would always use a plastic toy ship. Heres a pic of a guy who used a plastic toy plane. Looked odd at first, but after the coraline started to grow on it, it turned out kinda neat. Heres a picture of his tank:

Are you wanting something in the tank or around it for decoration? If you are looking for something in the tank I recommend styrene models. I have made and sold a few museum replica quality submarine and ship models if you are interested. If you're interested let me know and I'll PM you some options and a price.

Here's a shot of the deck of a U-47 I finished two years ago. The weathering effects aren't quite done in this pic. It was over six feet long and radio control. I'll try to dig up some pics of it in the water.
