bootneck Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 The Norwegian cruiser that collided with a tanker a couple of days ago has sunk. Reports state the ship was earlier warned of the risk of collision. Anyone know if there is a 1:350 scale model kit of this class of ship?

MikeR Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 The words Constructive Total Loss spring to mind. I wonder if the Norwegians will bother replacing her? Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PF Naughton Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Hi, Someone who markets there stuff under the name Dutch Fleet Naval Miniatures on Shapeways also has a 1/700 scale 3D printed version of the ship available for purchase PF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bootneck Posted November 15, 2018 Author Share Posted November 15, 2018 Thanks for the recommendations on kits, although I should have mentioned that I build to 1:350 scale. Apologies for that and I've amended the post. cheers Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
