Thanks, how about the length of the barrel?

I knew about the Bismarck kit, just waiting on the USN versions. I wouldn’t say no to a USS NC 16” gun but for me a 5” would be great to do as a MarDet gun.

Humm… After market items…I wonder what an Aber set of metal barrels would cost? :thinking:

Can we get a full interior? That would be so over the top.

What a beast! Looks fantastic. Interesting to see a build of this new style of kit.

Thanks for sharing :slight_smile:

All finished here, The hardest part was doing the railing on the turret top.
They give you that monofiliment fishing line. It doesn’t work.
I used thin .015 rod for the railing, I’m not shure if the railing was cable or hard railing.
There’s a interesting video on the net about the ship.
