Hey so I'm almost done with the 3d print version of USS St. Louis, and the next project will be a revisit of the Tennessee class ACR. Once these boats have been proofed and tested upon the Anvil of war by SAS captains (Namely @Tugboat ), I'll publish them in the resources page along with instructions and Parts lists.
We were just talking about a St Louis during our holiday dinner. We were dreaming of arming all those 2ndaries, but I think she's just too small even to stuff her with small 10-shot fast guns. I'd love to see what yours looks like in plastic!
Heh, saw this and thought of you ... you maniac! https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/watercraft/military-watercraft/hms-minotaur-class-cruiser
me and the fellas figured out how to fit two guns in her, and there's a guy looking at doing quad sterns, but there isn't really the room in the hull. if we could start a 1/72 PDN style club, it'd be possible, but this boat would be really challenging in 1/144 to put any more than 2x 1 unit fastguns in
and yes, I get the time, I'd do a Minotaur hull. I have sets of plans for it from the imperial war museum
Easy there, no need to get too crazy. I still need to start/finish some of the stuff you've already left on my plate. Speaking of which, new props came in today, I should probably do something with them...
my woman lives in Michigan. she is easy to please, and not materialistic. my boat time allottment is therefore absurd.
