Check it out: www.halinski.com.pl (There's a link on the page with pictures of the prototype. Stunning stuff.)

Nice looking ship. I haven't heard of any models of her, but it would be great if someone designed one. Unfortunately the pickings in card models of WWI battlecruisers are pretty slim.

Is this the new or old GPM Missouri? I've read that the old one had fit problems, but the new one should go together rather cleanly. Good luck on your build, BTW.

Modelik's put up five new kit announcements on the Konradus forum. All in Polish, but I'm sure you'll get the gist of it. :-) http://www.konradus.com/forum/read.php?f=1&i=85385&t=85385 http://www.konradus.com/forum/read.php?f=1&i=85381&t=85381...

Ahem... I don't know whether this is the right place to put this, but Konradus just posted some interesting pics of the upcoming GPM Missouri kit on his forum: http://www.konradus.com/forum/read.php?f=1&i=79403&t=79403 His info is that Big Mo is going on sale sometime towards the end of...

No need to remaster your Polish -- Kartonwork has a section in English especially for this kind of thing. I'm sure you'll find people willing to help you there. In fact, you could also try www.konradus.com -- no special section there, but there really should be no problem, as some of this...

Congratulations, she's a beaut. Just as a point of interest, this was the first Polish ship to return to a Polish port after World War II. I have had no luck locating any photos of the original.

John, I wouldn't worry about it. I know plenty of Brits and Americans who have been living abroad for years and haven't learned the local language. Why bother, when you can get by in English? Of course, some of them will go back and make fun of immigrants who don't bother to learn English in...

Ah, that. I can't do much better than Janusz's KOSHCHOOSHKO -- maybe to break it up as Kosh-choosh-koh, with the stress on the "choosh".

:lol: I had to think a while to come up with these. The "szcz" is equivalent to a hard "shch" in English -- of course Russians have a single letter that takes care of the whole mess. Much more efficient. Anyway, since you're curious: "shchen-koh-shchisk", "shchen-shchie" and "p'shcho-wah" --...

Jim: Eeeek, I didn't want to come off criticizing your pictures so much. However, I'm attaching something to illustrate what I meant. bowdenja: You need some more practice in your Polish pronunciation. Say after me: "szczekoscisk", "szczescie", "pszczola". Got it?

I've heard there's a strong lobby to rename the mountain to its native name, but I gues the unpronounceability of the good general's name may have something to do with it. Then again, it's easy for people whose language includes gems like "chrzaszcz" and "trzcina" :twisted: BTW, nice little...

Check out this build of the Prinz Eugen by Klaus Gilles from Germany: http://www.hutnikverlag.de/teil1.htm http://www.hutnikverlag.de/teilii.htm http://www.hutnikverlag.de/teil3.htm The 1:250 scale kit was put out by the CFM publishing house. It's apparently all made out of paper...

Holy cow, cmdrted, that is one hell of a ship! Could you post a picture that would give us some idea of her size? Thanks.

That's got to be the funniest thing I've read in ages. Thanks! Simon

Judging by the Polish price, and the shipping costs that must be involved, that is not such a high mark-up, I must say. Many Polish modelers were shocked at the price when the kit came out.

When built, she also had three smokestacks. The forward two were later joined into one.
