I sent a few photos to the people that sail the original No. 5 Elbe as they requested for this feedback in January when I recieved a bare copy of the original frameplan that I did work with. They probably shall publish an article of the model in their next club newspaper in due time.

Oboship Posted August 24, 2022 #172 Posted August 24, 2022 Hi Nils, This is truely a beauty! Regretfully, I started to follow your build log only at a rather advanced state of the build, but of course I read the previous posts as well. I used to work very close to Hamburg Ueberseebruecke ("Vorsetzen") and I saw "Elbe 5" every now and then on the river, particularly when the annual "Port Anniversary" was due. I think that you created a very nice rendition of the beautiful original! It is a model you can be proud of! Best regards from Stade, and who knows, maybe we will meet sometime at the Maritime Museum in Hafen City... Uwe Mirabell61 and mtaylor 2 Quote
