The windows are obtained from a tank p.e. parts. Actually the model is a little more complete but I have some difficult in take good pictures of it

Outstanding work! My hat is off to you, sir. I couldn't make the most builder friendly kit in the world look that good, let alone something I concocted out of sheet styrene. You guys who have the talent to scratch build never cease to amaze me with what you do.

Your attention to detail is excellent - especially at 1:400. I am following this build with interest. Nice work!

Knowing how hard it is at the moment to get time at the workbench

-it is inspiring to see this sharp work

despite months of pause


Bravisimo! :thumbs_up_1:

Thanks guys, and thanks to Jim for his words, I take a picture in a very tricky moment, I'm trying to persuade the upper structure to match with the boat bridge..

Thanks Patrick, unfortunately my model work go forward slowly, in reason of the work complexity and for my job, but I promise to post some other pictures about the small upper structures I'm working.

Hi guys, as I promised here below you can see two upper structures of Bremen. They are the covering of the two room machine skylights, obviously hidden by elegant structures in order to not disturb the exclusive passengers.

Hi guys, here below you can see the two type of Bremen lifeboats, their davits and winches ready to the molds. In a "short" time I hope to finish the boat deck of my model.

This looks like a very nice model and it is of very great interest to me. Can you describe the process of making the davits? Also I do not see the earlier images posted at the beginning of the thread. Can you repost those or restore the links done way? I would like to see your hull making process also.

Thanks Harper, I tried to restore the first pictures.. but I lost some of them. I built the davits using a little "U" brass profile and in the U I fitted in the plastic parts, the white ones. The pulleys were obtained cutting a rod plastic profile.
