Now I'm with Type XXI, again...

This moment I have problems, I haven't founded any 2513's radar type.
I think it would be FuMO 61, but I'm not sure. And I decided that I made any radar when looks so great than plastic.
So you can see some photos and notice my radar and radio is better... Hope you have agree with me! :big_grin:

Tower has also problems, when I haven't managed with steps althought looks already a bit of better than my Akagi's steps.

Have you something suggestions for me, that I will doing better?

Cheers,
Joe :wave_1:

Jonne,

I would not abandon the project. May I suggest some things?

- remove the PE off the turret. If you intend to place PE items again make sure they are straight. If not - better leave them off, rather then having them wrong.

- Use Brake fluid and a tooth brush to remove the paint
