    Looks Frankenstein’s monster like without paint. Might pigment glass resin on next one, but wanted to see the laminates in place for this one.

    I had a brain fart and ran myself out of materials for production this weekend, so taking the shutdown time to get the Prinz Eugen Details Molds operational. Now if I can just remember how to get them right. Lots of flawed parts to remind me what not to do. 75 parts total make this ship look really cool!

    Prinz Eugen Bling went from back burner to afterburners this weekend. Hoping to have the full kit pics done later today.

    Let me know if you ever get a reason to scale up that kit to 1/96th scale, lol. Just kidding. Looks great man. And looks durable. I like it

    Getting closer... huge thanks to @MasterDeepFog for letting me keep his hull for the weekend to set up and trial fit this kit. Nice completed pics coming soon.

    I Agree. This little girl has had my heart for a very long time... but if I get her, she's going to be an RC only ship :)

    No lip on this one. Deck can be removable or permanently mounted with access to interior through the superstructure hatch
