:thumbs_up_1: Thanks for sharing.It might be the most handsome ship in my eyes.
But one question--should her AA contollers be some kind of early type? according to her C turret's 5m rangfinder, it seems to be her stature before 1938.

"Between November 1938 and the end of the year, C turret received an 8m stereo rangefinder in lieu of the 5m pattern, some modifications were made to the AA control position,"---ww2 cruiser operation. the folowing pics show the difference between these two type.

Thanks guys.
Sirmaumau - you are probably correct as my info on the subject is at best sketchy.
I was shooting for the configuration with mast mast still present, windowed upper platform on the bridge and no heavy cap on the funnel. Could be I mixed things up. Any suggestions would be appreciated as to how to make the ship configuration correct.

Does anyone have an idea of what color is used on ALGERIE? I have the Combrig kit, which depicts her from '39- early '41, if I'm not mistaken. Someone mentioned to me that it may have been approximate to IJN Sky Gray, which I do already have a bottle of in acrylic.(therefore leaning toward using, if no other info comes to light...) Any thoughts or suggestions?
BTW- those are great computer renderings!

Hot damn, that is sweet!

Regarding the color, I have a note that another modeler recommended Humbrol 147 as a color.

That is gorgeous!

You need a sea scape in there and photoshop a few wisps of smoke from the stacks.

Would you mind sharing us how you setup the scene for rendering? I like to have my ship rendered in that scheme too. Thanks.

EDIT: sorry for repeating the same message. did not realize there is a waiting period. :big_grin:
