All diagonal part outlines became stepped, and the multitudinous rivets lost all sharpness. After a few enjoyable hours of Photoshop work, I was ready to start building.
Sorry - that's partly down to me building a .pdf from a .bmp. Jesus says he is not very skilled with software and uses MS Paint for his models. It looks as if he used the default .bmp output when he saved the model. I had issues to find what the original scaling was and found 96 pixels/inch by trial and error.

If you'd like to share your 1:50 rework I'd be happy to put it on Landships II with appropriate attribution.

Regards,

Charlie
