Hi,
@David
Nice and clean result. Was there no helicopter included? The manufacturer site shows a picture of a model with a Westland Sea-Lynx Mk 88a.
I was always curious about the NNT kit and rejected due to the price tag. After having seen your result, I might change my mind.
Thank you for publishing this!

@all
It may interest some, that JJ at Modell-Heling.de -currently actually serving on a Bremen Class- is putting together a comprehensive article by text and picture.
While the site comes in German language (e.g. you could use google translate), at least the walkaround pictures may be of interest. The article is going to be extended as time fits for the author, so maybe save the links and drop back there every once in a while.

Here are the current references:

Yep - there is a helo inlcluded, but in order to ship it back to my patron in one piece, I did not build it up.. Shipping these things is an art by itself, and often does not allow me to build up all the pieces.
