White Ensign Models makes a superb 1/700 resin model of the HMS Renown, circa 1942. Shouldn't be too difficult to convert it into a 1944/1945 version.
I believe HP Models also has a Renown and Niko Models has announced their own Renown (both of these are 1/700 scale).

MJQ: Honestly, the Intrepid isn't the museum she used to be. She used to have a focus on her rich past, with displays of aircraft and models, but no more. I was on her last year with my son, and was sort of dispirited by what I saw. Our local NJ hobby club used to build models for displays there, b...

Very bad news for me. I was hoping to be in NY for summer 2008. Now I´ll have to wait until INTREPID is open, because my idea was to go there and make the trip to Camden, NJ, to visit the USS New Jersey. Honestly, the Intrepid isn't the museum she used to be. She used to have a focus on her rich pa...

Re: Anyone have plans or pictures of the Bridge on the Nagat
You may want to ask this question over on the J-Aircraft.com Japanese Ships & Navy Message Board. In the last few months, someone had posted some nice CG work ups of the Nagato's bridge.Capt. Lindemann wrote:Subject says it all.

Re: Battlestar Galactica as a Space Aircraft Carrier
Hey, Have you seen the new BSG series on TNT? Not only it is a lot better than the 1979-80ies BSG (remember Lorne Greene and Dirk Bennedict?) but the producers made some serioues effort in giving this space opera some realism. The Battlestar Galactica IS an Aircraft Carrier with Air Wing, Combat Ai...

Re: Seydlitz or Derfflinger
Hi guys. When HMS Queen Mary blew up and sank under the fire of Seydlitz and Derfflinger - which ship was actually credited with the sinking? Seydlitz or Derfflinger? I always thought that Derfflinger fired the fatal shot but some sources give credit to both ships? According to the World War I Nava...

Re: A Vanguard Plastic Model Kit?
In plastic all there is the old Hasegawa 1/450 Vanguard kit, which isn't very good.Karl Heidenreich wrote:Is there a good one? Perhaps a 1:350 one?
Don't think this is one you'll ever see in plastic in 1/350 scale.
There is a 700th kit but I've heard mixed reviews on it.

Re: Prinz Eugen during Op. Zauberflote
Ciao Martin and all, YES, your guess is right, early May 1942 just before Operation Zauberflote ( 16 till 18 May 1942 from Trondheim to Kiel ). You should have noticed the repair ship Huascaran just behind the Prinz Eugen... still there after a good job done on the ' dummy ' rudders and the stern t...
