Hi

to Modelwarships.com

Re Lion class..

I have a rather nice unpublished glass negative taken of either Lion or PR probably near Oban...

here is a view- its conveniently scanned and on my PC

I also have some photos of a very fine Lion model that was sent to me anonymously--builder unknown.

If you want to send me an e-mail at jbys1@tiscali.co.uk

I will send you the images back at full res if you want them.

Meanwhile

I have (kit) built HMS Queen Mary in 1/700 scale

http://www.modelwarships.com/reviews/sh ... eview.html

and Marius Chescu of Romania has built rather a fine rendition in 1/192

http://www.modelshipgallery.com/gallery ... index.html

I and the rest of the chaps would be very interested to see your model also!

Best Wishes

Jim Baumann

Jim
how did you scan that glass plate neg? I'm asking out of curiousity not having ever scanned one. Done plenty of film negs though.

Cheers

Aha!

I said the slide was on my PC and scanned--I did not actually scan it myself!

that is quite a specialist job I think.
I got Jonathan Eastland to do it for me( He is a famous yachting photographer who has a marine picture library!)

I built Lion many years ago at 1/128 for Jutland and a 1918 version when she carried a Sopwith Pup on Q and Y turret and also at 1/192 a Princess Royal . If anybody would like to see photos then e-mail me and I can scan [ pre-digtal ] johnrhaynes.shipmodels@virgin.net Deck views available including bridge detail
