Build a Cleo and paint a different name on the back end. Constitution only won by cheating on the Rating Rules. :twisted:

I find running across a bedspread or similar works for mine. Once the surface has gripped the tracks the wheels should follow. Cheers Maurice

Some drawings As well as her sistership Hannover at http://www.dreadnoughtproject.org/plans/SM_Hannover_1907/ http://www.dreadnoughtproject.org/plans/SM_Schleswig-Holstein_1908/ will give you large scale scans of builder's plans as built. (Well worth playing with in a graphics editor.) a...

Dear Masochist The KG V is defininitly one of the less worse ones from Maly Modelarz (1986). It seems to have been designed with reference to accurate info and there's quite a bit of purely printed stuff that could be modelled with more substance at 1/200. No idea of the fit of parts. Just...

Blast. It increases greatly with calibre. Tests showed that the crew and fittings had to be shielded from it, which accounts for the fact that most of the superstructure is enclosed and clear of fittings to a much greater extent than on other capital ships. (In these testsYamato probably killed...

On the resource links http://cache.ussmissouri.org is a Missouri specific site. Wunderwaffe is a fascinating site for information on ships and planes, but notoriously slow. By the time you've downloaded 2.5gb of plans and pics from it you will be significantly older than you are now...

Rob Hope this isn't what isn't very good. http://cache.ussmissouri.org/missouri.pdf 7.4mb No lines but more than enough sections and deckplans to extract what you need. And more on this class of grossly overrated overgrown anti-aircraft and shore bombardment too late to be real...

Psst.....Barry....you can cheat a bit. 8 amp fusewire for example is 0.27mm diam. and, rather handy this, already tinned. Cheers Maurice

Greg Just one point to feed into your deliberations. A range of additional generic photo etch sets is readily available in 1:200 scale, not so in 1:250. Maurice

This may be true in the case of some primitive societies, however for the situation in the more advanced cultures of Oceania, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Eastern Europe see - http://www.noteprinting.com/innovation.html http://www.noteprinting.com/showPage.cfm?pageId=14 Maurice BTW...

Jim Hey I never said is was big. Get DTO to buid it. If you print the gif at http://www.geocities.co.jp/Playtown-Dice/6462/given/t03-gori/gori-k.gif at 90dpi it will be at approx 1:25 scale. And it still won't be big. And get that dog seen to. :lol: Cheers Maurice

Not a big one - but enlargeable :D http://www.terra.dti.ne.jp/~yoshidom/ go to Visitors models then Studio T or direct http://www.geocities.co.jp/Playtown-Dice/6462/given/given-t.html

Barry Looks great to me. With fuse wire you have to make it quite clear to the wire who's the boss. Take a good length, put one end in a vice and hold the other in pliers (or hold it that firmly in some other way). Pull hard and run your finger nail (or smooth edged bit of plastic if you...

Ryan BB35 USS Texas - and get out the way - you're spoiling the view. :lol: Dont think think there's a paper model of it yet and it's about 217th on my list of possibles. :D Maurice

Charlie As it was a minimally modified ISU122 fitted with the 152mm gun, I would suggest referring to these to modify the available 122 plans http://www.armor.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWII/SU152/d http://www.armor.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWII/isu152/isu152.php Maurice

Barry Is that your way of calling me a "squirt". :lol: Unfortunately Japanese heavy cruisers predated that nation's predilection for pointing cameras at everything :lol: and pics of them are scarce. There are drawings of the species which you may find useful at...

Piotr Great fun, thanks. Raimund Scale may not be a real problem. The lighters towed at speed into wind across the North Sea to give an early form of VTO capability against zepplins were not very big. Landings? Let's just say the pilots were expected to be able to swim as well as...

Built Kawasaki,Kobe. 1940 to April 1942 Sunk 24 Sep 1944 11deg; 59` 20"N / 119deg; 58` 15"E (GPS). Err_ _ that's Coron Bay, Philippines. And the width is while Emily is away doing what she does best. And you've missed the masts. :lol: And where were you this morning? Down the pub...

Assuming it's a waterline model Length (oa)_____589.75mm Beam___________79mm Height (approx.)__180.95mm Notes Height is very approximate since it is a rarely published figure for ships. Add 27mm if it's full hull. These dimensions are in mm since I disapprove of the use of cm...
