That is a very very fine model indeed!

If she gets to Telford--I shall be enjoying her with my x 5 Optivisor!!

Lovely job there Nicolas.

Been out of the loop, so missed this great finish to a very enjoyable build.

The scratch building was amazing and the finish is as expected from all the work you have put in on this ship.

Once again, fantastic work

Cheers Capt P.

Hello Jim

I'm moving to Telford, and with the Richelieu,but I do not know if my Richelieu,can withstand your Optivisor it is the ultimate weapon for dislodge small errors!and I do not have your level ,I am a rookie in the naval construction ,and of mistakes and there must be .anyway it will be out of contest
thanks lot capt !I appreciate your nice comment
cheers

I bought the Tamiya Mighty Mo with a lot of p.e extra from W.E and Alliance modelworks. 5inch turrets with blast bags and brass barrels for both 5 and 16's. Have the conversion kit round bridge from classic warships also. After witnessing your outstanding build,I don't think I could do a well enough job on this model. Bravo Zulu Le Bosco!

Yes, it is the Missouri the name. But she maybe the New Jersey with the round bridge. we will see.

I got so much on my plate it's stupid! Again you got me wanting to build my U.S BB because of your outstanding build sir. BB's are not my style,but will see what comes out. Just a nice build! New Jersey BB-62.

It is superb in every way!!
I love it

Nicolas,

simply outstanding !

Body and soul, all that it is about, all is wonderful!

Deepest bow, Daniel

Hello everybody

I wanted to thank all persons who took the time to give me their feedback on my Richelieu who was at SMW 2013 in the oversea section . (sorry for my spoken English and thank you to Pierre and Jean Marie Blanchet for the translation )



My Richelieu was in the middle of masterpieces of Pierre Marchal ,Bruno Gire (AKA Big Bear )Jean Mahieux ,Philipe P�rotin
thank you to them for allowing me a place
cheers
Nicolas

Now that's a helluva display, Nick! Glad you could make it to such a big show�am I to take it that there were many googly-eyed viewers?

Hello Goodwood

I did not count people who have given their feedbacks but apparently, people love beautiful forms of Richelieu
cheers
Nicolas
