Model Fun Shipyard, I hope you will consider updating your 1/700 Pensacola and Salt Lake City kits that you offered on Shapeways. These were very nice models only needing thinning of the splinter shields and refinement of the guns and smaller details due to Shapeways' limitations. You captured the hull form and deck curve very well and the rest of the models are very accurate.

I definitely will. I was hoping to have made more progress upgrading my kits for current market standards by now, but things have happened. But I haven't forgotten about it, don't worry.

Starling has just announced a model of MV Foylebank in her pre-war form. This is a full 3D printed kit. Starlings' previous Bank ships still had a resin hull.https://starlingmodels.co.uk/collection ... -foylebank

And so, after two months, I have received a hull of a Carlos V, a full Francesco Carraciolo kit which I did not order either and no Devastation.
They arrived three weeks ago and the seller did not react at all to my messages. If anyone who ordered Francesco Carraciolo has received a Devastation we might swap them. I have an old WSW Maria Teresa in my stash so Carlos V might actually get build. Otherwise I think ordering from this trader is bit of a gamble.

Thanks Lars for wading through all the WorldofWarships slop and casio watches on ebay so we mortals don't have to.
I have ordered Devastation, will report back somewhere next year.

Yes - that was posted above and at several other places here in the forum. But the 3D-Wild kits are extremely expensive, especially the 1/700 and if ordered from outside the US.
