This is just awful news. Very sorry to hear, 64 is just too young. Thank you for all you have contributed to our hobby, RIP Jim. -
Welcome back! Your lower deck structure is looking really good.
-
Thank you Allan, I’m still experimenting with the lines as well as a partially framed version. Materials are hard to obtain right now.
-
That’s a lot for that model. Crazy. I feel much better now as well. Curious to see how the sales go.
-
Hello Gerd, Thank you for your compliments and interest in the model. I have a few setbacks right now but I will begin building shortly. Stay tuned. JJ
-
Off to a great start. Have you found the framing plan for the Portland class yet? It’s available at the NMM.
-
Beautiful design work! Looking forward to seeing more progress.
-
Always interested in anything Olympic class. Looking forward to seeing this develop.
-
Excellent work Tom, glad to see you back at it again. This is going to be a nice kit. When will session 5 be available?
-
CAF does not pirate, Tom produces original work. ZHL may be pirating his work however. I’m not sure.
-
Looks like a very promising project, well done Richard. Will you offer it in 1:48?
-
CAF is legit, ZHL is not. Buy directly from CAF.

Lookin good Glenn. Nice and crisp as usual. I didn’t want to cover any of that structure up either. A good planking job will help take the sting out of it though. You’re moving along nicely. JJ

That looks really good!
-
Yes that looks good, as long as the curve is fair and follows the reference lines. But if I remember correctly the whales start just above that.
-
Thank you Siggi, this is helpful in my design. I will place a toilet in the lower QG.
-
Incredible work Dusan! And moving right along. I also like how you have made clearance for the channels in your molding already. Wow!
-
Amazing work Siggi! Where did you find evidence of the toilets on the lower quarter gallery? I have not had any luck with the Portland class drawings. I may adopt your toilet configuration for my Portland. JJ

I bet your material costs alone come close to or exceed $550. I think $800 is a bargain for this model considering laser time, design time, packaging… and at a final cost similar to Winnie which produces just as nice of a model but framed is a steal. A POB version at 1/48 would be nice as well.

Very nice work. Planking is looking good. Do you plan to paint the hull? -
Hi Frank and thank you for following along. I don’t have a date yet, I’m making some slight revisions to a few parts on the 1st chapter as well as adding a much needed frame support jig. I will hopefully begin building soon but I need to be well ahead in the construction before I can release anything otherwise I could leave people hanging. This is a hobby for my hobby and I cannot dedicate myself full time yet. But once I complete the hull and planking I plan to move much quicker…unless I decide to rig all the guns again. JJ
-
Your moldings turned out great. I really like the profile, makes me want to redo the ones on my Winnie. She’s looking very good.
-
I think it looks great! I’m also fond of the red up above, I think they go together well. All the models I’ve been studying have a darker blue frieze, or at least it appears that way in photos. Are you going to offer a 1/48 version?
