I am getting to like building ships, I really should donate zio some more money after building more than I feel i paid a decent donation for.

well i have to admit there are a few parts that I have no idea where they go and and no way of finding out and they are small bits anyway. these lifeboats are a lot and seems to be more than can fit where i thought they would go. and looked at photos of the ship and all i can pick out on the photos of the ship it didn't have any lifboats other than the ones near midship near the smoke stack

ok the boats are a pain but getting there. really after the boats are done its the sea plane and the mast toward the stern and finish up a few touches.

Well after the sea plane and doing a few hours more work I have finished. Good fun to build a few parts that I could not figure where they go at all so they are not on the built ship and a few lifeboats that had nowhere to go as far as i could figure after even looking at photos of the the real ship on the world wide internet thingy

Well done and good work! Congratulations on another ship model. I must have missed it in your thread, but how long is this model?

About 22 and a half inches about three inches at its widest and just under six at the highest point of the masts. It looks huge next to the Graf Spee really the Graf spee looks tiny next to it. next up on the martin zio ship yard gneisenau it may be faster since it is mostly by the look of it the same ship really only difference i can see on the instructions is the second mast is at the funnel
