Takom 1/72 battleship Yamato type 94 46cm main gun turrets
Phil Gollin replied to gavingav's topic in The Rumourmonger
. I would expect that in a year or so there will be a full turret truck version with transparent sides. . -
. No idea if a 6-inch version of the C-class cruiser is contemplated ? Likewise, any chance of a Tribal class with errors corrected ? .

. And outstanding proof that all this fuss and bother about exact colours is a total waste of time. That film was taken from the same viewpoint with the same lighting conditions and each ship's colours are different ! A lesson for all people suffering from self-imposed exactness. This film is extracted from Ron Smith's series of videos on the Royal Navy in WW2, almost all taken from the IWM archives. .

. I have given up trying to find the "Mobius Eagle" topic, so just to highlight to "Space 1999" fans that the whole series (starting with the first episode tonight) is being repeated on "The Horror Channel" ( channel 70 on Freeview). Anyone who misses tonight's episode can seen it again on Saturday. .

. I wonder whether this is part of the old/outdated "centimetre - gram - second" ( cgs ) system of measurement which an old European standard and was still being taught in UK schools and used in UK industry in the late 60's (alongside Imperial measures) for metalwork, and similar. See; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centimetre–gram–second_system_of_units .

. There is no way that that aircraft would fly - even today with fly-by-wire it wouldn't ! Why do people drool over such impractical fantasies ? .
