Graf Spee Model Builders,
While researching a model of this ship I have started I got several pubs related to it, some of them pretty old. One pub, Pocket Battleships of the Deutschland Class, had several educational photos in it. One topic, the presumably black boot stripe on all 3 ships of the class was more narrow than as portrayed in the Kagero 3D book, otherwise very accurate best I can figure out. The test shot in the post above came from that book.
Another topic this ship had smoke generator gizmos on it that seem to have worked like giant smoke grenades.
Before I screw this post up, I will end it and try to post the relevant photos in the next post.
