  1. A) your table is not messy b) it’s not a competition, we only challenge ourselves
  2. I’m in, I recently read the history of this ship and have the Anatomy Of the Ship book for it.
  3. 6 months at least to make it look good gents.
  4. Really tempted to build this but I have no skill whatsoever with solder, I’d have to use CA. You’re doing a great job so far. The hull plates really are quite quite large aren’t they will no rivets either! That would annoy the hell out of me. You seem to have it well in hand.
  5. So I'm flying along and discovered I'm missing a float. Can't progress until I find a replacement.
  6. Nothing lines up very well,this large scale stuff is hard!
  7. Yep, it’s a 1972 mold OK, even with the additional PE (you pretty much can’t see any of it when closed up. Lots of putty will be needed yet
  8. It’s so strange working at this scale
  9. I haven’t built a plastic aircraft since about 1980, which matches when this kit was a re-box of a 1972 mold. It’s not that easy to find at a reasonable price (it cost about $30 with postage) plus a bit of PE as I can’t help myself as usual. its going to be nice to build something a bit bigger than usual scale and compared to HMAS Vendetta a bit less fat fingers I hope.
  10. It’s a 1972 mold still! Apparently it was pretty useless but lovely lines
  11. Thus ends the German phase; Graf Zeppelin, Seydlitz and Emden. Parked up in the digital graveyard. I live in hope they will make a USS Langley so I can build that as my third US ship, but I’m not really inspired by anything at the moment as anything I build I want to weather heavily as it’s fun. I’m really not a fan of doing that many aircraft again, so as a break I intend to do a couple of flying boats in ‘Shore Leave’. I haven’t built a plastic aircraft since the very early 1980’s.
  12. Aerials added, Ships crest, pretty much done. I’ll get some better images tomorrow when I have better light
  13. More planes. 4 aerials to go. 7752FC30-2CC5-48C1-92A7-69C5EA8438AD.MOV
  14. Amazing build mate, it pops up when you Come back from work and I’m reminded of its excellence
