- Taking a stock standard 1:600 scale model of the Scharnhorst, stripping it down, repairing and modifying it to about a 1941 configuration. Be sure to check out my channel for lots of other Airfix 1:600 builds.
Outstanding work. I've got a 30 year old Warspite that needs a little TLC.
Thanks for inspiring me.
I agree the videos on this channel are very inspiring. Now go give Warspite some attention! Maybe even make a video showcase?
@@MrGoldenVVideo? I couldn’t do that to my brothers (and sisters).🤭
Remarkable rebuild that's added a tremendous amount of refinement to what is a really a crude model. Really like the toothpick mail masts-quite an ingenious use of a simple material. Too bad Airfix hasn't re-released the kit, I have fond memories of building it as a boy. Wouldn't mind having another go at it, doing something similar.
I really like the whole refurbishment, like the bow swap making it feel like you actually are refurbishing a ship to be reused. It looks amazing!!
That's a fine reconstruction. I wonder if Airfix will put this kit on the Vintage Classics lists. I do not recall many pre-Atlantic bow kits of Scharnhorst in any scale.
Where did you get the funnel cap that fits??
Beautiful bow. Would have used new 20mm guns around funnel. You have very good skills
How do you fit your photo-etch railings? I'm in the middle of the airfix HMS Hood, my first model in decades. I tried using super glue gell but ended up in places with glue on the railings, I got them all on and it wasn't bad for a first attempt but I'd love some tips! Your ships are beauties by the way.
I use zap a gap supa glue. Make sure its all bent up before hand. Its ok if there's a slight bend to clear the deck edge. You just start with a small dab of supa glue at one end, wait till its taken, then dab the next little bit, hold the rails there. Also usually I don't paint where its going till its on, then the bottom rail creates a great demarcation line for painting. Curved sections can be pre-bent around a suitable diameter pen.
Shame most ship kits are 1/700.
1/600 is a better scale to work with and look at.
Great job.
She looks fantastic mate do know where you get the patient's to do all those modes but well worth it in the end result. 😊
