Hi cmdrted Great looking model, bravo. BTW - I think the Admirable freebee did a good job but it is getting old now - what would be a good subject to replace it in "service"?

Barry - you are manufacturing chain yourself :shock: Wow. Jim - just in case you don't get this chain right, I buy nice, fine chain somewhere on 6th Ave bet. 37 -38th. Some place with embroidery - if I got the name right :oops:

Barry That's a very good idea with the turret template. The fit is extremely tight, as on the original ship. From Skulski's drawings it looks like #3 turret, when rotating, could clear the tower only with guns elevated :?

Sharp and clean Rob. And Happy Birthday.

Looks great Barry. What kind of batteries are you running on - you just keep going, and going, and going..... :D

Scorpio - looking forward to your new build. Interesting project indeed. How are you going to build her - "standard or open"? Jim - I would add one more thing in your description of the ship history. For all Poles, the ship will always be a symbol of dark days in September of 1939, as it fired...

oops, I see that Maurice have already noticed this :oops: My guess - N class

Can't say what it is, but do I see a rectangular opening at the bottom of the bow, somewhere close to the bulkhead #4? Sonar location :?

That's some piece of work Jim, it really is.:shock: It's scary to think what you will do with all that rigging.:lol:

Thanks guys, but I keep saying that I'm an average builder, nothing spectacular here. I just hope that I make good designs, but that's not up to me to judge. Gil - as much as I would like to get rich quick :twisted: , I just don't know when, and even in what form this model will be out. So hold...

To be honest I counted on your help Ron :wink: But my problems are still a mystery for me as one of THE images was less than 45K. The color profiles is something I have to look at, you’re right.

Just to prove that I'm doing something on the Arizona two progress shots of the model. I don't think I can finish her in 100% for the Herndon meeting, but I'll bring the model anyway. Anybody from the forum is planing to attend?

All the pictures of Reinhard's ship I have are on my site. But I can ask him if he has some more.

I also visit this board and site frequently. I have to give a credit to the editor -Timothy Dike and his collaborators for keeping this site going - the site is updated very often. I could also learn a lot from them - especially when researching the Arizona.

Pssssst - Guys, you should take a look at this: http://www.modelships.info/mwsphpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1603 Just don't scare them off :wink:

Hi Barry The rectangular shape you asking about is the outline of "signal stand" - some sort of shelf from which signalman would work. I couldn’t figure out how high above the platform deck this shelf would sit (probably lower than the edge of platform shield) so I left it out of the design...

It looks like MM Potemkin. Here is a link to a construction review for this model from one of the Polish boards: http://www.konradus.com/forum/read.php?f=1&i=55475&t=55475

Personally, I play with paper as much as possible, like Jim, and use paint as little as possible. Although I’ve never tried the foam method, I think I wouldn’t like all this logistic hassle with foam, paint, sending, polishing, masking etc. No space, no time, no motivation. The problem for...

The railing stanchions spacing is not spelled out anywhere in the Skulski's book so we need to somehow scale it from the drawings. It looks to me as if 8mm to 10mm spacing will be OK.

Baltic? Are you shure about the spelling of the name?
