This guy says they were not, and uses photographs to back himself up.

Me, I like the stripes.

Thanks for the link Steve and I too like the stripes but I was going to paint her as to how she looked after leaving Norway but Ive changed my mind and I will go with the stripes as soon as my paint comes I will continue, hopefully in the morning.

Be more daring and go for something a little more unusual.

What scale is that? Needs some of these appropriated scaled to go with it http://www.freetimehobbies.com/WEMAS7013/

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

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.

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

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

Don't listen to Jim. He's just upset because somebody threw up all over his model.
