I can't believe the French would tolerate such a poor maintenance job on that ship..... 😬 Seriously, Greg, this model is a pure marvel of precision, realism and preciousness. A beautiful addition to your extensive and comprehensive collection. Yves

Very interesting and unusual model. I will follow with a lot of interests. Yves

Superb model. It looks so precious and the presentation is beautiful. Yves

Okay, that is were I stop the hobby!! That is incredibly small....you are hurting yourself ☺️ Yves

This is looking fantastic Kevin. Your models will be safe and well protected from the dust. What is that hull with parts and plans, hanging in the display? Yves

Impressive and absolutely beautiful. Yves

It is a difficult decision. These kits are so precise and provide all the intricacies of the various decks and framing. In a way, it would be a pity to not show all your beautiful work. On the other hand, it is also very nice to have a fully finished hull and to be able to admire the sleek and harmonious shapes of it. Are you an engineer or an artist? I think it boils down to that. Whichever decision you go with, I know it will be perfect. Yves

When planking the ceilings, will you be planking everything or just half of the hull? Beautiful build, I am in awe at your skills. Yves

WOW !! Really nice and realistic. Yves

Kevin, you are becoming the King of Brass !!! Yves

Almost fifty years ago, I built the Bismarck by Lindberg. It had "almost" 😉 the same features than the Agora model, but everything was mechanical and driven by rods and gears. It sailed rather well on calm waters and I later on equipped it with a small combined Kraft RC set, that gave me steering and FWD/Stop/REV positions. It was a lot of fun. Yves

Ca se precise ! It is coming along nicely. Yves

Yes, it sits better on the sea, now. Yves

This sea looks very realistic of the North seas, where these Corvettes operated. Yves

Great stuff. Count me in ! Yves

That will be quite a project, that we will all be following with attention and interest. Yves

Sorry Craig, I forgot that you did a French battleship. Glad to see you attempting a small vessel, rarely seen in the world of models. Yves

Finally, a French vessel to place in your extensive collection. Yves

Quite incredible what this gentleman has done, starting from a 1/72 scale kit of the plane itself. And all in plastic card.... I was thinking about the doing something similar, after purchasing three kits of the Yamato guns by Takom..... I think I need to be placed in an asylum !!! Sorry CDW for high-jacking your thread.

Until then, Happy Modeling!  Chris Decker www.squadron.com

Beautiful cat! Yves

The Japanese truly had some very unusual ships, in their fleet. That is what makes it so interesting to depict them. After your Scharnhorst, that should be a piece of cake.... Yves

What a great project !!! I wonder how I could have missed it.... Fantastic progress on a truly lovely boat. Yves

Impressive. Yves

This is incredible work!! It reminds me of that Japanese gentleman publishing his masterpieces under the name of Kim's House: his motorcycles collection is THE REFERENCE of what can be done in that domain (http://kimshouse7015.com/). Your Porsche bicycle is a work of art. Absolutely stunning. And yes, replacing the spokes on the wheels with insect pins, changes completely the model. Yves
