All those aerials and their feed wires look superb. Well worth the effort.


Thank you! Glad you like it!

I took a few better shots the other day, so just adding here before I work myself into the Gallery upload.

One thing I still cant get right is keel blocks to sit flush with every part of the hull. I adjust one - another one sticks out. Seems like a game of whackamole. So I leave it here, but have to consider better approach next time. I also notice few bits that need adjusting in these photos, like peeled paint on railings or something but that is fixed before final model "done".

Ive also added the plaque from Flyhawk on the base.

Just beautiful.

Beyond adding to the gallery, you should enter it in the ION contest as well.

Although I’m really late on catching up on this build, since i was engaged from the start i wanted to jump in and say how excellent this turned out!! Beautiful, plus I learned a new method for the aerials. I had so much trouble with those on Tirpitz. Will use this on mine…probably tempted to pul it out now

On Scharnhorst the front superstructure is very crowded with rigging and antennas. I think Tirpitz is similar. Once you get past that, everything is down hill from there. Start with hardest part, start inside out. It is pretty easy after that.
