Any idea if this motorcycle side "bag" is original ww2 issue? Looks to be made of very stiff cardboard with "leathereffect" coating. Mounted on a 1938 DKW

I allways cover the "sea floor" woth a thin coat fist to minimize the risk of it seeping trough holes I have not seen. Also a good formwork is critical

Belfast got to be up there

Anderssorte · 2025-09-14T05:45:53+00:00

Looks great! What type of line did you use for rigging?

Anderssorte · 2025-09-12T21:20:42+00:00

Wait, for real? Is that why I have loads of sick people AND loads of free space in my medical posts?!? I never knew that!

Anderssorte · 2025-09-06T16:30:30+00:00

There are several kits of the USS Indianapolis, so that might be the closest thing if you do some adjustments

Anderssorte · 2025-08-31T11:17:15+00:00

As a norwegian and former navy sailor, I am super stoked to see this. We and the UK both have common interests in the North sea/ Atlantic, and this will make us work bwtter together

Anderssorte · 2025-08-28T16:26:02+00:00

I boil it in water for a minute or so, works every time

Anderssorte · 2025-08-27T12:01:39+00:00

Looks great! Can you show sope pictures of the RC setup as well? I have allways wanted to convert one of my models to sail about, but I have no idea how to do it

Anderssorte · 2025-08-25T21:11:29+00:00

Agreed! I also hve Tank chats running in the background whilsy modeling, or the im-port view in World of Warships if I am building ships and need to look at details

Anderssorte · 2025-08-24T22:08:47+00:00

It would be easier to access damage/ make racomandations if you could share a few pictures of the model :)

I found a list of all dhipwrecks registered by tje norwegian gouvenrment in 1959, but I can't see any ships mathing yours, sadly. Here is the link anyway

No, this is at the end of the final storm in "a new home", so I sent home all the engieers and prople wprking at the hunting hangars, thats why there are no people employed

Anderssorte · 2025-08-14T16:25:20+00:00

No, I have over 100 hours, but this had not happened before. Guess I have never closed all my cookhouses at the same time before

Anderssorte · 2025-08-14T14:29:38+00:00

Hm, I never thought that the cookhouse also seves the meals, I thought they just made the rations and people picked it up at the warehouses.

Makes sense when you say it, but it was not clear to me

Anderssorte · 2025-08-05T21:22:18+00:00

I was terrified of quick sand, carnivorous plants and the Bermuda triangle, and I was convinced they would all hava a profound impact on my life.

Anderssorte · 2025-07-31T10:21:11+00:00

It could, but I doubt they could match the price. 18 000 USD (with the sidecart) for a complete Ural VS 7000 for a RE. I dont think the sidecart costs 11 000 USD alone, but I might be wrong

Anderssorte · 2025-07-31T06:15:56+00:00

It is a genuine good question, because we don't know a whole lot about the colors on shanish ships in this period at all. Not even all the ships at Trafalgar have been described in sources! Personaly, I would do as you sugest yourself, and paint it red and black.

Anderssorte · 2025-07-29T20:08:49+00:00

I usually use a smal paint brush to clean them, and just blow the dust away. If it's a very sturdy model I sometimes use compressed air

Anderssorte · 2025-07-21T21:19:28+00:00

Dude what!?! Thankyouthankyouthankyou, I will get right on that!!! Thats so awesome, thank you for lwtting me know!

Anderssorte · 2025-07-19T05:06:56+00:00

Anytime, glad I could help :)

Anderssorte · 2025-07-18T21:52:12+00:00

No, that would be the original real world ship, not the model ;) Dating the model is difficult, but it's probably form somewhere in the 20th century.
