Hello Boris,

 

Wow, what an ambitious project!  She served her country well, a brave ship with a brave crew.  I don't know how much help I can be for you but I'll be looking for you.  

 

The best of luck with this project!

 

Cheers,

Piet, The Flying Dutchman.

Hi Jan. 

Many Thanx!!! icon_supporter2.gif

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 ....icon_supporter2.gif

Always thought that for the resin-guys 1:350 is considered "large schale" :)

Are you going to do the resincasting yourself?

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.
