This one in particular was done by John Sheridan in 3D CAD for RP printing... and Mike Czibovic worked the RP part into the physical master.

So who is doing the master patterns ?

Mine is on the way.

I can hardly wait for mine to arrive. I LOVE strange and unusual subjects and the Ft. drum is that in spades! I almost bought the 1/700 scale version, but the 1/350 scale will be so much cooler. :thumbs_up_1:

Brandon,
It is a really nice work.
To arrange 22pages of manual is really hard work too.
Of course other Resin, PE or Brass doing are also not easy.

Thank you
Kim

Well..... it was actually supposed to be first, but Nautilus just happened to get done first :-) As far as how we chose it... I wanted to build one and the best way I knew to do so was to have one made because there was not one in 1/350.... and so why not offer it everybody? So... then we needed a company name.... and in a nutshell that was how Blue Ridge Models was born :-)

Hi Brandon,

What a fascinating and unique subject. I'm curious. How on earth did you decide on this as the second release of Blue Ridge Models? :thumbs_up_1:
