Re: 1/200 Roma
Right people place your bets, Song Jung Gun, can't possibly produce the Roma as good as his cruise liner, this is a whole different beast, and the days can't come quick enough, really want to see build come alive.
Of course I have to step away from the fact this will be wood not resin or plastic, once I have centred my thought, I know judging by the last masterpiece, this is strongly wow factor.

Re: 1/200 Roma
Song Jung!
I have built the Roma --albeit the 'easy way'' ...(!!
) using the fundamentally excellent but nevertheless flawed resin kit from Axis models. I do have some useful photos that I wish to e-mail to you
Please send me an e-mail to:
jbys1remove@tiscali.co.uk
and I will send you some useful images back
This is a very helpful resource

Mr Barbieri studied the Roma for 25 years, during which he built what is probably the ultimate model of Roma--although it shows a boat fit that she never carried....
What plans are you using? I have some fine 1/100 plans....
Meanwhile you can see my model here:

Re: 1/200 Roma
Judging by the office drawers, this Roma looks like she's a good 2.5 foot long, my advice would obviously be, keep Jim Baumann under your arm, he will help you as much as you wish.
