A beautiful build Stein I love the lines in the Kreigsmarine ships!I had heard of the Bulcher but did not know so much of her history.You do some really nice work and rigging(scares the bejezzes out of me) I have alittle railing and rigging left on the Graf Spee in the 1/350 Academy kit.Again nice work :thumbs_up_1:

Hello Stein; Sorry for the late inquiry but I am attempting to build Blucher per your post, but am finding I need to get the plans you have as I don't have anything with the required detail for some of the changes. Could you send a copy of your plans in 1/350 or let me know where you got you originals so I can obtain the scale plans. My e-mail is cyberdan51@sbcglobal.net. Thanks

Hi Dan!

Drawing posted by e-mail today.
Hope they will be of help to you.
Please feel free to forward them to other modellers.

To convert to 1:350: calculate size of the drawing, or part of drawing you want to convert and let .ppt do the job for you (under "Format" you can specify exact size of your selected drawing and print out if needed. Use a known measurement (heigh of mast, lenght of ship etc as a basis for your calculation). :wave_1:

Stein

I would love to have those plans too! The only ones I have are from the AJ Press books and appear to be Hipper with a re-drawn bow, certianly not what you used.

Since the plans originates from Germany, it just makes sense to return a copy! :cool_2:
Good luck with your model!

Hi Stein!

I noticed that you have the great DKM Blücher!

And I would like to know how you found the Blücher plans?

My goal is building for 4 differents Hipper-class: Admiral Hipper, Blücher and 2 Prinz Eugens (In Finland water (Aland 1944) and 1941 or 1942 colors

I know that many people have asked you for plans.

Could you send me, too? My email address: jonne_uotila@hotmail.com

I'm going to build DKM Gneisenau, I like it more than DKM Scharnhorst. I have never found its plans! :Mad_6:

But fortunately Kagero published a new DKM Gneisenau's book! :woo_hoo:

Hi Stein,

We are some divers currently spending a lot of time at the wreck of Blücher now a days. If I get the posts in this thread correct, you have managed to get a hold of the blue prints. We would be very grateful if it is possible for you to send us a copy as we would like to understand what and where all we see are. My email is: larsenta@online.no

Where is this model displayed? Would very much like to go and explore it in depth :)

Thomas

I can see this thread being very useful again when we tackle the new Trumpeter Blucher kit. The hull is the same as the Hipper's kit so be prepared to follow the method shown here to get it right.
