Robert, thanks for the link.
I have Norton Internet Security running all the time and fully activated; i.e. I have not disabled firewalls or anything. I left it to do a full scan when I went to work this morning and it only found cookies. I haven't spotted the suspicious html words yet, but my Internet Explorer does not seem happy with the site. It keeps saying it is shutting down but then continuing and I get a message at the bottom saying that it has encountered problems with page. Enough of that. Let's get back to admiring Mike's work.

Curious that I have no issues with my iPad. Well.
I want to say that the bicycle is pow is fantastic. And apologies to Mike, once again. I'm not comfortable in most places here. Plus, while I am working like a canine to get Neptune plans (again, thanks to Renud) I have input that Charles-Martel is more desired. I might point out that nobody but, ahem, moi, can do either of these boats as models. Neptune is less known but perhaps she might be the more valued as a result? Carl

Neptune
Here is an attractive painting of Neptune I located on the web. It is an oil painting by Edmond Chagot portraying the ship in the harbor at Brest. Her lines appear very similar to Magenta.
I like the battlemasts on this class. Mike Last edited by Michael Mash; 05-05-2013 at 07:37 AM.

02 - Hull Framing
I owe thanks to many that have checked in with comments and praise . . . Fred, Glen, Marco, Robert, Don and David.
That includes the designer. Carl . . . Looking forward to more news about your work. Great stuff, whether it is the "Neptune" or the "Charles Martel". I hope you had a chance to see that "Edmond Chagot" painting I posted. Looks to me like it contains some valuable information about various colors used on the ship, particularly the color of the 4 large gun barrels . . . assuming the artist was accurate with his colors. The background of the painting would seem to indicate so. Work on Masséna has slowed, due to external events. You will need a sharp eye to see some progress. In general . . . this frame is a pleasure to build. The design is interesting, and the form is unique. I plan to get many images of it prior to covering it all up. Regards, Mike

You sure do beautiful work, Mike!
The upper hull framing looks really sinister and Jules Vernish in black. I see that your Iowa has been featured in the Model Warships gallery: http://www.modelshipgallery.com/gallery/bb/bb-04/Iowa-250-mm/index.htm Don
