amateur Posted June 2, 2014 Share #6 Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) Interesting one. You don't see these ships modelled too often. Why do you date her 1942? As far as I know she was build 1937. 19/2 was her first action in combat. I guess you kow this one: http://www.maritiemdigitaal.nl/index.cfm?event=search.getsimplesearch&database=ChoiceMardig&needimages=true&searchterm=tromp%201937&allfields=&title=&keyword=&creator=&collection=&shipname=&invno=&museum=&startrow=1 and some pics here http://www.maritiemdigitaal.nl/index.cfm?event=search.getsimplesearch&database=ChoiceMardig&needimages=true&searchterm=1942%20tromp&allfields=&title=&keyword=&creator=&collection=&shipname=&invno=&museum=&startrow=1 Problem is: I don't know whether this is the Bofors you need.... http://www.maritiemdigitaal.nl/index.cfm?event=search.getsimplesearch&saveToHistory=1&database=ChoiceMardig&needImages=YES&searchterm=bofors+tromp Jan Edited June 2, 2014 by amateur PacificCrossRoads 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacificCrossRoads Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share #7 Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) Hi Jan. Many Thanx!!! Here are some photos that I had not seen before ... Best wishes. Boris. Yes...19/2 was her first action in combat. And the last fight of this ship in Javanese Companies ... This battle (19/02/1942) saved many lives of the Dutch sailors because "Tromp" was not involved in the Battle Of The Java Sea ....

PacificCrossRoads Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share #11 Posted June 23, 2014 Hi Piet. As always 1/350 ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SawdustDave Posted June 23, 2014 Share #12 Posted June 23, 2014 Like Piet, I think the question of scale is absolutely critical in scratch building..... 1:50 being the least you should consider. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amateur Posted June 23, 2014 Share #13 Posted June 23, 2014 Always thought that for the resin-guys 1:350 is considered "large schale" Are you going to do the resincasting yourself? Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacificCrossRoads Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share #14 Posted June 23, 2014 Are you going to do the resincasting yourself? Hi Jan. Of course, the model will be released soon in a series of 50 pieces in resin ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacificCrossRoads Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share #15 Posted June 23, 2014 1:50 being the least you should consider.Hi Dave. This model will be produced not one-off ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amateur Posted August 18, 2014 Share #21 Posted August 18, 2014 that's very nice! Did Tromp had an open funnel, or was she fitted with one of those caps on top of the funnel? Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacificCrossRoads Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share #22 Posted August 19, 2014 Hi Jan. It figures only those items that will be produced from a resin ... Soon I will show more details for PE .. Wishes. Boris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacificCrossRoads Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share #23 Posted August 19, 2014 (edited) Hi All. I have only 2 photos "Tromp" before the battle in the Strait Badoeng ...

Piet Posted September 12, 2014 Share #26 Posted September 12, 2014 Okay Boris, I'll bite The detail you are incorporating into the model at that scale is utterly amazing. How did you manage to make the railing so realistic? Hope all's well with you. Cheers, PacificCrossRoads 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amateur Posted September 12, 2014 Share #27 Posted September 12, 2014 I thought youdid only model the resin part. The railing will not be resin, i think. Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega1234 Posted September 12, 2014 Share #28 Posted September 12, 2014 Hi Boris. Looks wonderful. Will you actually build the model, or will it only be a computer generated image? kees de mol and PacificCrossRoads 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
