Plan searching

Post by nboyd383 »

I was wondering if anyone could throw me a link to the best places to get either 1/192 or 1/200 plans for the ships
Nagato, Fuso, Hyuga(ISE Class), oyodo, agano, and Barham/ Revenge aswell as larger size plans for the Fubuki, Akizuki, Kagero, Shimakaze, O class, and Tribal class. I have checked taubman's site and they have them but they are in 1/144 and for model ship combat which are often less detailed.

This is not the end, nor is it the beginning of the end, but perhaps it is, the end of the beginning.

Pacific Front has some, including some of the amazing Miyukikai plans

I've been lusting after a set of his Shimakaze plans - both the '42 and the '44 - for some time now. :pout:

Some are, and some are very detailed- it really depends on the set. I have some in 1/144 (being a ship combat sorta guy) that are scaled from incredibly detailed plans. And I have some that aren't. Check to see how many sheets there are, and ask how detailed they are. I can tell you the Mogami plans and the Takao plans are pretty good. Althought the AOTS book for Takao is a needed supplement.

yes, i some Mogami plans that are absolutely superb, but then i have an IJN destroyer that are rather crude for even combat standards (still usable nonetheless, but not much in terms of detail)
It's not who you are, but what you do that defines you.
