Things are going slowly on this new model. Not only is it more complex than the Mig, my house right now is an icebox. Still I've managed to make a little progress on it.
 |
| I finished most of the larger fittings. From left to right we have the main bridge, funnels, rear deck, and spotter plane. Not pictured are the 6 gun turrets. |
 |
| Here the main hull is being assembled. |
 |
| I also started working on the base as I plan to make this model into a diorama. |
And now for my find of the week. I managed to find a copy of this book on line for only $10. Not bad considering the book cost hundreds when it first came out.
 |
| Still in very good shape. |
These books were used by western intelligence agencies and full of useful information. I like this copy as it was printed just after the end of the cold war when information on the Warsaw Pact was becoming unclassified, but before the mass decommissioning.
 |
| Not only are major warships covered, but it also has information on support ships and even government owned civilian vessels. |
Unfortunately having started another job has started to cut into my game time. I also currently have no coms as I'm behind on my phone bill. Still I hope to get back on track soon.
