AckiBin auch gerne dabei, aber den Mindestabstand kannst Du vergessen. Da erkenne ich nichts mehr. 👍

Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareSlow progress in the last days because of beautiful weather. Finally managed to finish No.2 turret

Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareA few days off and bad weather lead to some progress on this project. Pontos set misses some details and the resin parts are generally excellent. A few show more flash and other minor defects. But still a vast improvement over the kit parts.

Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareI managed to complete all the Armored Box Launchers and the Harpoon Launchers. I even put all my courage together and started the opened launcher from the Infini set. 83 PE parts, 5 turned brass parts, some plastic sheet an 6 hours was all it took to build an amazing tiny detail for New Jersey.
@Joerg: Herzlich Willkommen

TreehuggerThe smokestack work in photo 10 looks really nice I think. Fun to see others drilling out the holes in pipes and stuff. 🙂

Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareHow can you not drill out all the pipes. That would be really insane 😉

Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareToday it was time to finish the four Phalanx CIWS. The detail on the Pontos parts is absolutely breathtaking. A was with black oil and afterwards a careful dry brush with light grey and white is all that was needed.

Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareToday I managed to complete all the 5 inch guns. The detail on the Pontos parts is superb! Only thing I had to change where the gun mantlets (not sure if that is what it's called for naval guns), as the Pontos parts are way to small.

Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareFinally some progress to show. I used the old Tamiya kit to replicate the SH-3 Sea King seen on board New Jersey in 1983. I added struts to the wheel sponsons an the fin on the tail boom. The MAD probe on the starboard sponson was made from styrene rod. The tail rotor is made from thin styrene strips. The main rotor came from my own Elegoo Mars SLA printer. The Tamiya rotors look more like bricks...
Most of the markings are hand painted to match the exact Sea King shown in a series of pictures from 1983.

Thomas RieckMoin Ingmar. Wie bekommst du auf dem letzten Bild dieses "verwaschene" Grau hin? Lackieren und dann? LG Thomas

Slavo HazuchaJust found this project - fascinating work, so much attention to detail and an absolutely clean results - I really like your painting & weathering weathering too, you strike a great balance between macro & micro and a great scale impression result! 👍
- happy to jump on board mid-project 🙂

Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareThank you Slavo! The project has been on hold for quiet a while now. But hopefully I will get back to it very soon.

Norbert SteffensWhat I've seen looks fantastic. I predict that your USS New Jersey is going to be a excelent model
25 March 2021, 18:57
Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareThank you Norbert! Now I have to live up to those expectations 🙂

Stefan FraundorferDas sieht alles unglaublich genial aus Ingmar. Super Bemalung und Alterung. Nur eine Kleinigkeit ist mir aufgefallen. Die untere Stiege im Bild 36 ist verkehrt angeklebt. Oder hat das einen bestimmten Grund?

Michael OsadciwWow. What a lot of detail. How do you like the 3D printer you have? I've been thinking of getting one for creating parts and hopefully full 1/35 scale figs once I get some more Blender sculpting knowledge under my belt.

Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareThank you everyone!
@Stefan: Die Treppe hat es auf dem Fotor "nur" nach hinten umgebogen. Da ist schon alles richtig 😉
@Michael: I'm very happy with my Elegoo Mars. For around 250EUR it delivers very nice detail! I did a lot of modeling and sculpting in Blender the last months. Have a look at those two projects:
St. Mary's Church, Falklands April 1982 | Album by stugiii (1:350)

Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareToday I was able to complete the main armament. Turret No3 also needed some modifications to resemble the prototype in the 1984 time frame.

Ed BatresI'm curious, why are there handrails on the turrets? When would the sailors use them? How do they reach them? I'm primarily an aircraft builder, but appreciate great work. Thanks. Great attention to detail. Pleasure to see the work you do.
18 April 2021, 16:49
Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareHi Ed, I'm not entirely sure, but most likely they would be used to secure a sailor with a rope when doing maintenance or some paint work. You find similar rails around the whole bridge, e.g. for cleaning windows or repairing something from the outside

Matti ThomaesPermission to come on board? I'm planning to do the Revell Platinum version for my next large build, this is very inspirational...

Ingmar Stöhr FörfattareThank you all! I just added a huge update to the album. And no, this is not the progress of one night 😉 I was just way behind with posting updates here. Album with finishes build will follow soon.
