With reference to Michael's post: If you want to be more careful ... a Japanese Dozuki, fine teethed saw could solve the problem

So you've been busy building something else entirely ... !!! Gefeliciteerd/congratulations Shoos. Glad it's planned. It might be advisable to take the glues you want to use on your build with you to show. It makes it easier for the one judging to judge them properly

"By contrast the German battleships are usually equipped with a much taller hull and lower superstructures." Ever compared the Yamato class with their German counter parts ... e.g. Bismarck ...

They neither had a lot of mines in the 18th century ... Marvelous details. I especially like your setup of heavy metal to keep a piece of paper into shape!

I'm so sorry to be missing his support, advice, but most of all his presence. For me he has been one of the people whom make MSW a home from home... I hope he didn't suffer, and wish his family and friends lots of strength to cope with this great loss ... I will remember him as a dear friend -
Jan, If he leaves them stacked, it certainly will, he forgot to glue them! Hope he has a post-it fitted to his airbrush to remind him of it

So you want to say, Yamato was a piece of cake compared to Ise! You are funny mate. When I look what I forgot and still have to add to musashi ... ise must be in your experience the pits PE-wise ... maybe I should buy that kit too, and have a PE-orgasm!

Interesting choice Clare-san. You should know as no one else at MSW that Japanese don't use drawings as used in western building, and therefore drawings are most certainly inadequate, but for Douglas Brooks' drawings. I wonder, however, if he would have a drawing for this boat!!! I'll be following with more than a casual interest. Cheers

NIce Greg, strange Tamiya didn't use this construction on their kits. I would have liked that

To small on kindle for me to be able to read it, must be getting real old. Got it for ten quid at amazon.co.uk, but you're right a lot of after market information for both type of ships. The service history is interesting on the Ise as she's been refitted and "reshaped"

Nice work, do you have the Japanese battleships Fuso and Ise (Ship Craft series by Robert Brown ISBN 978-1-4738-8337-6) Which has some useful information, also on the rigging Cheers

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
