Ship is 1/350 so those 1/700 Swordfish would actually look a little odd

If your asking what scale the model I am building then it is, !\200 and that's the model shop I am waiting for a delivery from

Sailor Steve · 11-17-14, 11:43 AM

1/200!? That's a big 'un!

BossMark · 11-17-14, 12:10 PM

^^
It sure is, just short of 50 inches from bow to stern

Thanks Jim and yes it is a really truly awesome kit, just painted the lower hull waiting for dry then to fix the main deck (pictures to follow)

Jimbuna · 11-18-14, 10:00 AM

Divvun ferget, masking tape for waterlines etc.

BossMark · 11-18-14, 11:35 AM

Not a huge amount of stuff out there in 1/200. There are some at http://www.shapeways.com/model/15563...FeLm7Aod7wcAuQ

That is big, thought maybe it was the old Lindbergh model.

BossMark · 11-19-14, 10:08 AM

With the main deck in place, I am now waiting for the wooden deck to arrive which I hope tomorrow or Friday.

BossMark · 11-20-14, 08:19 AM

Now with the screws and rudder, screws painted in mixture of Tamyia x12 and x20a

There is a guy selling all the parts in 1:100, but that would cost a furtune. The hull alone is 289,- EURO

Nice, but if I was going to go that far I'd want to take it all the way to 1/72. Park it alongside your u-boat.

BossMark · 11-22-14, 02:36 PM

Just received the MK1 design kit the wood is really thin

so I will have to very careful when fitting this
