Giiday, All! I thank yah for the kind words, Brother Armo!! I'm just a crazy old Yank that enjoys modeling, even though being a bit of a detail "nut"! Hah! Careful, me brother, or I may become a "legend in my own mind"!! Hahaha!!
USS Ingersoll, DD-652, is a US Navy Fletcher Class Destroyer. I chose her to model my Lindberg Blue Devil after, as she was a fellow Vietnam veteran at around the same time as I was in country. Just seemed a bit appropriate. She underwent numerous post-war refits in the mid-1950s' which included the removal of her #3 5"-38 gun, and replaced with a 3"-50-cal anti aircraft gun, as well as a number of additional upgrades. I will, at some point, begin a build thread on her once there are sections of her actually worth seeing. Hah! Pretty boring at this point, she is!
Thanks to you, Pondweed, for the tip regarding figures for the 1/125 ships. "N-scale", I believe is 1:160 which would work out pretty well in physical size, so I shall give that a good look. There is a company called "PeopleScale" who produce figures "by height", and their 3/32" scale figures measure about 9/16" in height, which would be the closest to being correct as I have found. Another possible source of figures there.
Happy modeling and a very good day to all!!
