Welcome
I don't know if this is a good department, but I would like to show you the construction of a 1/75 scale Edda Flora inspection ship bought in Germany from Bauer Modell.
The model is intended to be RC. I bought a laminate hull with a deck and plans (4 sheets A0). The deck material will be HIPS 2mm reinforced from below with foamed 6mm PVC. The superstructures will be milled parts of HIPS of different thickness.
Short technical description:
Edda Flora was designed for IMR and geodetic operations and began operations in 2008. Edda Flora proved to be a very efficient vessel for IMR and geodetic operations. It has a De-ice record, with covered lifeboats, mafia boats, bow zone and hangar. Edda Flora's accommodation and office facilities have a very high standard, creating a good working environment for the crew and shore clients.
