Pontosmodel 1/350 HMS Dreadnought Detail Up Set

Post by Pontosmodel »

Hello All,

We've just started to draw Detail Up set for 1/350 Zvezda HMS Dreadnought.

As announced at other post, this set will include similar contents as Warspite Detail Up Set.

Now the main problem is to get references and information of Dreadnought.

We've started with some reference books
Anatomy of the ship Dreadnought by John A Roberts
Dreadnought by Robert K. Massie - WWI, History of Great War
Warrior to Dreadnought By Brown, David K.
British Dreadnought vs German Dreadnought By Stille
Profile Warship 1 :HMS Dreadnought/Battleship 1906-1920 by John Wingate

If you have or know any other good reference, please recommend us, we will try to get this as soon as possible.

Planned releasing date is 30th October.

Any suggestion or advice is welcome

Thank you
Keumho Kim

No Problem, You've reserved one set.
As we look at more and more, Dreadnought looks beautiful.

Thank you

I can't think of any other books except that there is a good photo of the port side of HMS Dreadnought showing the anti-torpedo net stowed and the booms and various other details in Conway's Battleships edited by Ian Sturton (p.77).

I love the way you have done the gun barrels!

The most frustrating part of this hobby for me has been trying to cut the plastic barrels off a part (Tamiya KGV quad 14" guns) and make the surfaces even and drill the holes and get all the barrels to line up.
