Herby63 Posted June 12, 2023 Share #1 Posted June 12, 2023 Hello to all members of MSW. I have been foloming this forum for some time now. I make models of historic sailingships (for which I am not afraid to do a little kitbashing) as well as models of "sailing" ships if one can say that of a ship with motors and propellers. My most recent build is an operational Trumpeter 1/200 DKM Bismarck with realisticaly turning turrets and elevating barrels of the main armament, a little lighting and turning radarunits of which i put a build log here: Trumpeter 1/200 DKM Bismarck - R/C-conversie - werfregister | ModelbouwForum.nl Text is in dutch, my mothers tongue, but pictures say more than a thousend words. My next project will be a static model: the Merit International 1/200 Japanese Battleship Mikasa 1905 with full Pontos upgradeset. I hope to get some inspiration on techniques on this splendid forum. Kind regards.

Ryland Craze Posted June 12, 2023 Share #4 Posted June 12, 2023 Hi Herby and welcome to Model Ship World. You did a nice job on your Bismark and also a nice build log. I was glad to see the Bismark in the water. I would be afraid that if I built one, it would sink. mtaylor, Keith Black, JeffT and 1 other 4 Quote Ryland Member - Hampton Roads Ship Model Society - Ship Model Society of New Jersey - Nautical Research Guild Current Build - Armed Virginia Sloop, 18th Century Longboat Completed Build - Medway Longboat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
