Schwerer Kreuzer USS "San Francisco" / WHV / 1:250

Hello Everybody,

I'm sort of new here as I don't have posted previously about my models, but this time I decided to upload a few pictures of the model I am building.

This is the Wilhelmshaven's San Francisco, a Heavy Cruiser built before WWII under the Washington Treaty. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

I have one question... How do I add more images than just one? I have not figured it out yet. Thanks for the help

Hello Michael,

Thanks for watching, I'll post more pictures as soons as the system allows me, as right now I'm trying to post the whole batch of pictures I have to the present stage of the build but after clicking on the post button the message is not present.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the info about posting the pictures.

Here is another picture:

Here the command bridge is almost done, this is as seen from behind

Overview of San Francisco along with Möwe-Verlag's Schleswig-Holstein

Another overview of the whole ship, this time with the Forward Funnel in place and also begining to assembly the middel structure for the search lights...

Here is a close up of the superstructure so far, the command bridge, forward funnel and the searchlight structure

This is a close-up of the Fighting Bridge...

Hello Everybody,

Sorry for taking so long, here I am posting new pictures, the ship already has both funnels, and other middle structures in it. Except for the still missing parts for aircraft catapults, the model portrays the silhuette of the real "New Orleans" class in WWII :)).

Hope you enjoy the pictures,

Greetings,

Erick.

The first picture shows the searchlight's parts in order of assembly from left to right...

The second picture shows the ready searchlight...

Third picture shows the platform that goes around the second funnel...

In picture four, you may see the second funnel platform and the funnel's base...

Picture 5: A close up from side looking at the stern of the two funnels, searchlight platform and other structures...

Hello Axel,

Yes, at one time I began posting in papership.de

Sorry for being away such a long time, in June 2005 I had a car accident, I wasn't injured, but didn't have the desire to keep building the San Francisco at that time I still can't believe I came out of the car alive.

Now I have slowly resumed the building and soon I'll be posting some pictures. I decided to borrow some parts from WHV USS Alaska to make the boffors more real :yahoo:

If nothing gets on my way I'll be posting the pictures no later than Sunday.

Have a nice weekend to you all.

Regards,

Erick.

Sorry for the delay, but this are pictures of what I've been up to till now with the San Francisco, the Bofors MK12 Quadruple mountings.
