OK, all lifeboats finished and on place.

Few more 20mm AAs, i m on 45%.

THX Jorg, yes u r right, Fly model is little madness in all forms

OK, winter is comming so return to work, i need finnaly to finish it.

more and more AAs

Soo, front main guns lifeboated, finished some AA guns.

When i m looking on others AAs starting again to hate this model

I ve started, with small lifeboats all roud main guns and AAguns, looks it kill me soon

oh i ve at home full set for uss misouri, but i dont like it, its paper model so i ll made somehow from paper:)

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh many

56 x 40mm Bofors in fourteen quad mounts
80 x 20mm Oerlikons

it ll be deadly.

Main guns finished

Secondary guns on place

i know, that was my first idea , but i m t sure with it, so looking how was it in real.

hmmm not sure with railing:

1. let gray

or

2. colored as part of structure below or behind

After long time some progress

A and X turrets

starting with secondary guns

ready to fly:)

thx, but the worst like AAs and lifeboats all arout turrets waiting

finished platforms on other side and superstructure.

bcs i ve again started to play navy field so getting slowly:)

move to the front:)

Never thinked that this big aa platform takes 2 days

Surprisingly without problems.

yes, fly model and lot of fun begun, i ve started to build structures, so the central one is ok, but sides AA places r terrible, square profile is trapezium, something is bigger then part above vice versa, lot of retouching and improvisation is necessery.

finished hull with first deck

Hull finished and starting upper plating.

I ve started with red RAL 3000 and after found in shop 3001, 3001 is muc hbetter, not much shiny red.

Hull after first layer, i ve seen thats many more ll be necessary

After putting few platings parts, i ve seen thats terrible and aesthetically (plating is made from 3 parts - 2 sides and 1 bottom) unsatisfactory so i ve somehow finished and sprayed with putty over applyed with acrylate putty and finally polished - prepared for red spay:)

Sooo body ok, builded from 3mm carton

Started to build USS California - this old Fly Model, bcs of old and bcs i ve finished Fly Model Nagato i m prepared for many problems:)

First some shots of real one:)

finished

todays wiring.....

Hello Sky,

you did are marvellous job on this one, the problems really sound horrible.

Possibly just the old Model Card "Emden" with a new paint job, Modelik tends to use this method (or should I say trick) from time to time, the Fw 200 Condor is the same.

yes, looks like, this is it:( only new reprint

here is

so, after some time some photos, in the model is many many errors, so i ve stoped counting and descibing, just simply finishing without some bigger endeavor.

many modifing, many parts needs reworking, some parts missing, some parts remain, and no idea where to palce no in scheme, no place on board:(

I want only finish it.

steps

@)

thats killer =D>

realy suicide work

OK:) yes its very nice and romantic castle from outside, must say interieur nothing special bcs its not master caslet but monastic castle.

Its nice to see thats somebody outside our country buliding our sights:)

as i see your building, on the main courtyard in front of yellow small tower missing big water well ( http://www.kartonbau.de/wbb2/a…t.php?attachmentid=159563 ) if u want build and add there, can send u picture:)

nice, but big problem is, that in model is not complete castle.

see picture, missing part with "front castle"

other problems:

1. cca 0.5cm bigger white space for placing funner
2. front funnet is hard homework:), notning fit there
3. marked flection of railing is different than railed parts on the deck
4. turrets must be ca 2cm in front
