Hello Goodwood

I did not count people who have given their feedbacks but apparently, people love beautiful forms of Richelieu :smallsmile:
cheers
Nicolas

Now that's a helluva display, Nick! Glad you could make it to such a big show�am I to take it that there were many googly-eyed viewers? :cool_1: :heh: :thumbs_up_1:

Hello everybody

I wanted to thank all persons who took the time to give me their feedback on my Richelieu who was at SMW 2013 in the oversea section . (sorry for my spoken English :oops: and thank you to Pierre and Jean Marie Blanchet for the translation :thumbs_up_1: )

Body and soul, all that it is about, all is wonderful!

Deepest bow, Daniel

It is superb in every way!!
I love it

I got so much on my plate it's stupid! Again you got me wanting to build my U.S BB because of your outstanding build sir. BB's are not my style,but will see what comes out. Just a nice build! :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: New Jersey BB-62. [img]http://i365.photobucket.com/albums/oo95/raider-hall/016268.jpg[/img]

I bought the Tamiya Mighty Mo with a lot of p.e extra from W.E and Alliance modelworks. 5inch turrets with blast bags and brass barrels for both 5 and 16's. Have the conversion kit round bridge from classic warships also. After witnessing your outstanding build,I don't think I could do a well enough job on this model. Bravo Zulu Le Bosco! :thumbs_up_1:

[quote="JIM BAUMANN"]....If she gets to Telford--I shall be enjoying her with my x 5 Optivisor!! :cool_2: :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: .....[/quote]


Hello Jim

I'm moving to Telford, and with the Richelieu,but I do not know if my Richelieu,can withstand your Optivisor :eyes_spinning: it is the ultimate weapon for dislodge small errors!and I do not have your level ,I am a rookie in the naval construction ,and of mistakes and there must be .anyway it will be out of contest :smallsmile:
thanks lot capt !I appreciate your nice comment :thumbs_up_1:
cheers
Nicolas

Lovely job there Nicolas. :faint:

Been out of the loop, so missed this great finish to a very enjoyable build.

The scratch building was amazing and the finish is as expected from all the work you have put in on this ship.

Once again, fantastic work :thumbs_up_1:

Cheers Capt P. :wave_1:

That is a very very fine model indeed!

If she gets to Telford--I shall be enjoying her with my x 5 Optivisor!! :cool_2: :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1:
