    Hi guys. I found on AliExpress PE paravanes for 1/200. Somebody bought from AliExpress any products and was happy about this side? I know that comes from China but this kit looks fine. Or maybe I am wrong? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002376800441.html?gatewayAdapt=glo2kor

    Hi @RGL. Can you please give me a link for this forum ? I would like to get so many information as possible before I start my project. I can see there are more Pontos PE for 1/350 Yamato model than for 1/200 Yamato scale model. I would like also replace cables going along side the ship. It will be difficult.

    Hi mellow guys. Can someone tell me which Woden deck is the best do 1:200 Yamato Trampeter please? I am new to modeling and went for hard project. I know 🙂. And also need advice what kind of magnifying lamp or head one to buy? I can see that some of them are from 8X up. Thank you for your advice guys. Ship is coming in few days 😀. I hope my wife will not get heart attack when will see the box.

    Hi guys. I just found that there are two different numbers for 1:200 Yamato Trampeter. Or maybe I need glasses 😀. Can somebody help me please which one is the newest? I just found MonoChrome | No. 64010 | 1:200. Is this. It’s said that is newest model or Glow2B 505805200 is the same model?
  20. Olaf
    1:200 Yamato model is more expensive than 1:350, but 1:200 has 15 sheets of photo etch where for 1:350 you have to buy extra. I know that there are some extra photo etch for 1:200, but will buy it 🙂. My wife will get probably heart attack when box will arrive 🤪.
  21. Olaf
    One more question @RGL. With your experience now would you build the same scale model or would you go for 1:200 Yamato ?
  22. Olaf
    Hi RGL. You done great job. But I have question to you. Is it worth to but Pontos PE kit like on this link? https://www.super-hobby.com/products/IJN-Yamato-1945-Detail-Up-Set-Advanced-New-Tool-for-Tamiya-78025.html Kind Regards Olaf
