Gilmore Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Hello Lee! My name is Juergen, I'm from from Hamburg. I'm a brand new member in this forum. You made this steamer wonderful! Even with lights! Very long time ago I made this model, too, but it doesn't exist anymore. But I have one quetion to you: The box art picture is so wonderful and I would like to have a print of it in A4 size. would it be possible for you to make a jpg from the picture what you send too me? The same (empty) cardbox I found on the attic of my parent's house but the colours changed and the picture is damaged. My e-mail address I will send to you by P.N. But I've got another question: The last of your pictures in this thread, where does it come from? It looks very nice, too. Bye bye from Juergen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cngaero Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Lee, that is absolutely magnificent. I love the night shots. Very much a vessel of its time that just has something about it that is so appealing. I remember nearly buying one of these back in nineteen hundred and frozen stiff when I woz a yoof; I wish I had now. Thank you for sharing it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoscar Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Hello, Superb work. I am even happier to see that I have the Mississippi Queen in reserve. This is the first time I see "his little brother" built. Beautiful setting. Marc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimme Shelter Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 great modelling - a lovely diorama and that smoke and water just adds the final touch - its great to see these old kits being brought to life and made to look so good after all the years they remained unbuilt a superb model - quite fantastic all-round in fact 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killingholme Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 That's awesome- very evocative with the light smoke and water- especially photographed in low light conditions. Rare kit in the UK too, so double points for building it rather than selling on to some collector! I have the Lindberg 1/163 kit in the stash, which is even rarer in the UK and I've never been brave enough to build it. Only tiny point I'd make (and I know it makes me sound like an insufferable pedant) is that they would be unlikely to have lights in the pilot house when underway at night- it tends to mean you crash in to things...
