Okay bevor the build begins here the parts for the Ship.
NO wait here is the MS Dreadnought, the first battleship.

YAY! Oli's back!!! Long time no see, pal!

This is some tough work you are doing! I'm looking forward to seeing more of it.

The Latin phrase "Reductio od absurdum" comes to mind, as you have shown the inner truth of your models, by reducing your models to their essence, I believe your work to be a truly unique art form. I have seen nothing like it elsewhere.

Es ist wunderbar, meisterhaft , große Meisterschaft der Kunstform Sie erstellt haben und gemeistert!!:Bravo:rinks:

11 centimeters!! My Lord, I would lose that in my belly button, "Heavy seas" ahead!!

11 Zentimeter !! Mein Herr, würde ich das in meinem Bauchnabels verlieren "Schwere See" vor! Voraus meine Freunde !!

 

[Oliver Bizer]

HAHAHAHAHAHA, yes i am totally stupid

 

[Revell-Fan]

Don't worry, we are too..! This is why we like seeing you here!

 

[Oliver Bizer]

Thats is it

Olli, this is one beautiful ship, you do her great justice, and keep her memory alive. In conflict, these men served bravely, did not rejoice in killing, you honor those who go down in the sea in ships.

Olli, das ist ein schönes Schiff, Sie tun ihre große Gerechtigkeit, und halten ihr Gedächtnis lebendig. In Konflikt, diese Männer tapfer gedient nicht in der Tötung freuen, ehren Sie diejenigen, die in Schiffe im Meer untergehen . ...............................Claphands:Bravo:

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

HAHAHAHAHAHA, yes i am totally stupid

You are far from stupid. I would say a bit crazy (as most of us are, myself included), but far from stupid.
At 11 cm, I am ABSOLUTELY BLOWN AWAY with your work.

 

[Oliver Bizer]

Thanks friends

 

[zathros]

Almost there Olli!

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

This coming together beautifully!

Fantastic! I remember building a plastic Graf Spee many, many moons ago. A friend want to re-enact the Battle of River Plate with "live ammo" (firecrackers) in the swimming pool. I point blank refused. Her captain was possibly one of the last "gentlemen sailors" who served during WW2 for either side.
