Here's a few shots of my current project. I'm using the Tom's p/e set, along with BMK brass barrels.

Forward structure finished:

I have this model and it will be my next project. I bought the WEM PE set for it. I'm thinking of doing it in it's pre-Jutland fit which means fitting the torpedo netting support structure. The PE set has well over 100 parts for the netting structure and davits which is a bit insane to attempt as this will only be my second ship. Oh, well, nothing ventured....

Can I ask you what paints you are using?

I still have to figure out how to mount the anti-torpedo netting, but other then that, she's done!

Moltke, she's painted with MM paints for the hull and main deck and Humbrol paints for the turret tops and upper decks.

You have done a wonderful job here on the SMS Grosser Kurfurst and it's certainly a model battleship to be proud of ! I have the 1/350 Konig kit, but it's still in the box, patiently awaiting me !

I will certainly look over the pictures of this fine build to get some ideas of how a dreadnought model should be properly put together and detailed, although I am definitely not in this superb class of kit-builders as demonstrated here.
