I am pretty sure that everyone on here got a good laugh out of that one. We all know that you want to build a Prinz Eugen, and it generally
gets folks more excited when they see someone else also building the same ship.
I am actually enjoying this build more than I thought I would. Mainly because I always try to read up on the history of the ships that I build.
The more one reads, the more one wants to read more. I am not so sure that there might not be a Scharnhorst in my future.
I have always had a fondness for the German ships, but it always seemed that they were already well represented at most battles in the past.
I am surprised to see that the German ships have not really taken off in Treaty, were most folks can agree that they will be really great boats.

| | 17 Jan 2010 11:05 AM | | I am using balsa for the buildings, and light ply for each level.
Last project, I used foam for the buildings. It was somewhat lighter.
I am cutting the centers of the buildings out to try to keep the weight down.
