Mike that is a awesome model! I mean everything is right about it. Love the contrasting colors, one see's so many ships that are just one blaw color. Yours realy stands out! As I have mentioned before, I would love to see more WW-1 warship kits available.
Just one thing Mike, How the heck did you train that spider to rig that ship ? :-) :-)

Fantastic rigging! Rigging is one of my weak points. Outstanding job amigo!

Beautiful with a touch of elegance.

VERY nice. I can't imagine the time and effort you've put in it. That must look great on a book shelf of display case. I take it that is a resin kit? 1/350?

Funny how the Germans never learned when it came to their props. Same three screws with closely placed rudders the Bismarck used thirty years later.

Believe it or not, that is a plastic kit and I think squadron has it for less than $70. It's one of the 3 Kaiser class World War 1 battleships

Mike that is one spectacular build. the rigging is just mind boggling. Almost makes me want to go out and attempt to duplicate

thanks guys,

This is the one that took me a week-remember i posted a scan 'cause the film was still in the camera.

The rigging is ceramic fiber. I'm thinking about selling it. It comes 24" long pieces-ramrod straight. Cut it to length and put it in place with a dab of glue on either end. A tube lasts me a year-60-65 ships (1/700 and 1/350) and bi-planes. should last the average modeler quite a while. I have 3 tubes on me $75 per first come first serve.

Hi Mike!!

You have a great subject there!! Absolutely wonderfull!!
This is the kind of model I was thinking for the Dreadnought Campaign...
It's the ICM model, right?

Stunning work, Mike. Love the red funnel - very colorful. I also like the torpedo nets. What did you use to make the netting?

I used that thin black mesh/netting stuff like they make bridal and flower arrangements with-touling? (sp?) I think it's called.......................Mike T
