Okay here goes time for my biggest challenge yet to build (and complete) the French battleship Richelieu but with a difference im going to build her on a concept design that was scrapped and never put into effect using the Jean Bart / Richelieu as the basis for Battlecarriers.
heres the hull as it was nearly a year ago with my old schutze inside the hull to give a scale of how big she is.
I did say in a previous topic i wouldnt start posting the build until the motors and running gear are in so now i have them in the build process is in motion.
Now for the fun bit she is 8 foot 5 inch long with a beam of 13 inchs so she is a fair size, ive gone for Graupner speed 500e motors on SHG Marine 14inch long prop shafts which will eventually turn 5 blade 50mm brass props.
Ive got another topic for peoples questions and my own research into the battlecarrier as i would like to keep this topic just for my build log.
