[WIP] H-39, H-44 and O Class

[Karle94]

I am making the H-39, H-44 classes battleships and the O class battlecruiser.

These ships are basicly enlarged versions of the Bismarck and Scharnhorst, with two smokestacks.

The H-44 and the O class has been scrapped becouse of lack of time and modelling skills.

Here`s the H-39:


and the O Class:


And last the king of the battleships; the H-44



Fell free to make any suggestions.

Enlarged version of the bismark? Are these planned german BB's that never came into exsistance, or did they come in a later post war era?

[Karle94]

These were all planned ships that was never build becouse of the urgent need for u-boats.

[Starforce2]

Got specs?
