amateur got a reaction from Danstream in Lockheed-Aeritalia F-104S by Danstream - FINISHED - Hasegawa - 1:48
This is the scheme I remember most
Although having seen this plane many times, I actually never noticed how small those wings are (my eyes probably a bit detracted by the large wingtip fueltanks)
The model is coming together nicely.

amateur got a reaction from thibaultron in Looking for card model of a Thames River Barge
The only one I can find is an oldie: micromodels from London had a barge and a natrow boat.
basis, dmall, no clue about scale, and rather expensive as Micromodels are only available second hand, or via the webshop-cowboys…

amateur got a reaction from mtaylor in Spirit sail rigging - length of spirit (yard) ahead of the mast?
In addition to what Wefalck writes:in VN de Veldes time, the sprit was set in a sling at the foot of the mast, the sling itself was attached to the top op the mast: no need to lift the (very heavy) sprit ot of its sling: gravity helped the foot go up as the tackle on the lower end was loosened. It was not unusual to have this sling made from forged iron shackles.
The lenght of the sprit varies greatly between periods, regions, shiptype, and preference of the ship-owner. I have read somewhere that the high-peaked spritsails were thought to have an advantage at certain wind-conditions.
there are various books around showing these arrangements. But: far too heavy and complex for a small vessel.

amateur reacted to RGL in HMS Dreadnought 1907 by RGL - FINISHED - Zvezda - 1/350 - PLASTIC - revisited
Boat deck, lot of detail here

amateur got a reaction from mtaylor in Looking for similar kits that resemble these ships
There are some card-models of liners. Only the famous ones of course: titanic, olympic, mauretania, wilhelm gustlow, carpathia, nomandie. Some more, but they are outside your time-frame I guess.
Beautiful ships, nice models, but by no means easy to build. (And quite an other medium compared to wood/plastic)

Well that’s the flying deck done, I’ve added a few little figures for detail but you’ll never see them.
