Scharnhorst drawings for sell

Post by rtwpsom2 »

As many of you may know, I have been working on a 3D CAD model of the Scharnhorst in her 1943 configuration. I recently completed the model and as a way to recoup some costs on the project I used the model to create two sets of drawings for her in 1:100 scale as well as some 1:50 details. The first set is a three sheet "basic" set with elevation and plan views of the ship, as well as the four main isometric (angled) views in 1:200. The plan view sheet includes a number of detail drawings that show the construction of the main superstructure components. Here are a few screen captures:

The second "advanced" set is also three sheets and has more detailed views of each component of the superstructure. The final sheet is in 1:50 scale and shows close up details of all the weapons and accessories, such as the rangefinders, cranes, anchors, etc.

All drawings are 10 feet long by 3 feet tall, with the exception of the final sheet, which is just under 12 feet long. Each set costs $35 US and $13 for shipping and packaging anywhere in the continental US. International shipping will be at cost. Buy both sets and shipping is still $13. Heck buy five or six, and it will probably be the same.

All drawings will be shipped parcel post in a 36" shipping tube, which is included in the cost. Please don't ask me to fold them, I am not any good at it, and I'll charge the same price for shipping anyway (in other words just don't ask :) ). Satisfaction is guaranteed. If you are interested, please send me an e-mail at rtwpsom2@hotmail.com.

Cannot open the images in order to see them.

Wouldn´t it be nice all the drawings printed in book? Not at that scale, but may be the plans and side elevations in fold out pages at a smaller scale and the details of the armament and superstructure in the original size. May be the people of Nimble can do it, it would be an instant success!!!

I am working with another publisher and many of these will probably appear, albeit at a much reduced scale, in a Scharnhorst book in the future, but I have no timeframe for that. I also plan to do sets of drawings in other scales as a market arises. If anyone would like to see any particular details by themselves or in a particular format, send me an email, I can be very accomodating.

I bought both sets & they are fantastic, the level of detail has to be seen to be believed!
If I get enough money I'm going to have them framed. They are jaw droppingly brilliant !!!!
I can't even begin to comprehend the mount of work that must have gone into this project . This is the must have item for anyone who has an interest in the Scharnhorst.

I really hope this isn't the last ship we see from you. Many many thanks for taking the time to do this & allowing me to own a copy, you're a gent
