Landlubber Mike Posted August 23, 2022 Share #35 Posted August 23, 2022 Scharnhorst is a nice ship for sure. At 1/200, it's going to be a big one. I ended up buying a 1/200 Bismarck with full Pontos upgrade from someone on here a few years ago, and when the box showed up, I freaked out. Took some super quick action on my part to break down the shipping box and "hide" it on one of the model shelves. Of course, one of my twins who at the time was 7 saw it a few days later and told me she wanted me to build it for her. I told her she'd have to probably wait until she was in college 😬 Are you getting any aftermarket for it?

Landlubber Mike Posted August 23, 2022 Share #37 Posted August 23, 2022 That looks like a perfect add-on. I just looked at the kit, and it has quite a lot of the important PE - railings, funnel tops, etc. Adding that Chinese set for the guns and deck will close the gap on what the kit itself is missing. mtaylor, king derelict and Canute 3 Quote Mike Current Wooden builds: Amati/Victory Pegasus MS Charles W.

It's either 5/6 all together Roger and their will be a flier or two I have the Kagero book very nice indeed but it has to be after the refit late in the war all double A's went triple with two extra around the center spotlight.The refit also included a dozen or so single A's on the foredeck and aft along with new radar.I would of had to have the book a couple years ago when I started to make the adjustments to late now also must be a later Chikuma out there from Tamyia.
