out of scale parts
Posted by tankerbuilder on Monday, June 15, 2009 4:04 PM
 As we all know the stack vents and watertight doors on the TRUMPETER version of the square bridge FLETCHER are somewhat overdone . Well I figured out a way to take care of those vents. If you have any extra p.e. from another ship ( mainly the gun director antennas) you can use these as vent faces and use 020 plastic strip for the edges .  As far as the doors are concerned , well TOMS MODELWORKS has a nice set of w/t doors you can use . This FLETCHER is the first ship I have finished using p.e. I,ll send some pics to the gallery in about three weeks so look for them . Remember ,the FLETCHER I built is the TAMIYA kit and I gotta say it,s a good kit for the money . It has been around for a while but I finally got it done and I am quite pleased . Now to get started on the TRUMPETER  FLETCHER kit and then the TRUMPETER BUCKLEY kit. My next purchase will be two GEARING class ships . One will be as built ,the other as a F.R.A.M. version.The 1/200 S.M.S. KRONPRINZ is coming along quite well at this posting , I,ll send some pics soon .  catcha later     --------tankerbuilder
