    Does Hipper share the same superstructure as Eugen?

    I think there are differences, but I'm not up on what they are exactly.

    For those that get into the details, the source drawings for these was the scans available on the dreadnought project.com. So this represents the ship in 1939.

    Looks great - almost makes me wish I had one. Almost.
    (On the other hand, I wish I could bribe you to do a Helena to go with your Brooklyn SS)

    It appears that Bow 03 is corrupt. When I bring it in to my slicer it has no ‘bottom’ so the faces are all disjoined which makes the slicing fail.

    Yep, that was definitely a bad part. Normally Slic3r flags that kind of error, but it didn't on that file. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

    Are you building a PE? I have this already printed for my sons boat, I don’t mind making another one.

    darkapollo,
    No, I’m hope two get her in July, during nationals, she’s just going to be RC only. Did any of you know that Prinz Eugen had the flag bridge…
