Hi Jim, Well, I have a very thin nylon that seems to be the approrpiate gauge for this job, but I need to find out two things first... a) What kind of glue should I use to make it rigid, I don't think I'll find CA here in Venezuela b) I'm looking for pictures of the ship to see how the...

Hi everybody, First: Barry thanks for you comments, they are really appreciated :) Second: I'm in the process of building the rear suprestructure over the hangar, which is sort of intrincate. While doing this and looking at Jim's Constitution I thought of giving a chance to do rigging...

Hi Jim! Really nice work here, the carronades are astonishing, a real microsurgery work. As for the rigging, well, that's something I'm very interested as I have never done any rigging to my ships, but may be I'll give it a try on my current project. Cheers! Erick

Hi Jim! Thanks for your comments, I'm right now with the small bits on the main deck and over the hangar, I'll post more pictures when I finish this bits and get to a bit of the superstructure on the hangar, that may take a bit more than a week as I don't want to rush. Great work you're...

The other two pictures...

Hi! Here I'm posting a few new pictures, the first one is how the hull looks overall and the other three are of the small bits done today. Erick.

Hi Barry, Thanks for your comments, this ship's gun barrels may be octagonals or rounded, they just leave it up to your skills, if you take a look at my Schleswig-Holstein I rounded every barrel. Erick

Hi Rob, Thanks for watching :D this is one of the last "real printed" editions that I bought a couple of years ago, the one that is available now is a Laser Reprint. I'll keep posting pictures as often as I can. Erick

Hi All, This is the new project I'm working on right now. Greetings, Erick

Hi Renaud, I didn't notice the difference between this to versions when I bought the GPM edition. I have never built a dreadneught or pre-dreadnaught, right now I'm full of ships from WWII, but sure I may want to get my hands on a good one from or before WWI, HMV has very good samples...

Hi Glen, There is one way but the picture has to be really good to zoom it in, the coat of arms should be unique to each ship. :) Erick

Hi Cardfan, Did you take a look at the pictures from the Wilhelmshaven model? Erick

Hello Renaud Really interesting collection, so in conclution, the Wilhelmshaven edition (you can see the pictures on my other thread) is from 1932... and the version from GPM is from 1944? Thanks for the links, Erick

Yup, you're right, this two pictures show her with the two forward funnels joined. Erick

Hi All! Finally I found to pictures of two different stages of the ship which explain the differences between the model I'm finishing from Wilhelmshavener and the GPM version, I'm attaching the pictures. Regards, Erick

And more pictures...

As promised, here is my still unfinished Schleswig Holstein from Möwe-Verlag. [/img]

Hi Cardfan, I'll try to post some pictures as soon as I get home, right now it's almost finished, only parts remaining are the cranes and dingies. I won't do the rigging and railing as I don't know how to do it yet... and I don't want to brake the model as it has been already restored from...
