I'm interested in doing a 1/350 scale naval model (my first) - actually
quite like the idea of the New Jersey rather than the usual famous WWII
stuff.

Would like to do Tamiya one as I want a fairly easy construction but with
reasonable detail.

Can anyone point me at a Naval Modelling website that may have pictures of
finished examples and reviews.

I've tried googling but just get a big list of shops selling models.

Thanks,

Nigel

The two most popular I would recommend are steelnavy.com and
modelwarships.com.  Both sites have gallery and walk around pages that
modelers can send photos for publication to the site.  The SN site is
probably what you want for the walkaround views of the real thing, but
as I said MW also has a similar page as well.  FWIW

Rusty,
I have been looking for a place that has models of WWI
battleships/battlecruisers, etc. and then I find your site in my old
alma mater, Edmond, Central State University!

Small world ehh?  I live only a few miles from CSU (what is now
University of Central Oklahoma).  BTW, check out the Steel Navy site in
thier "what's new" section.  There's a 1/350 WW-1 Brooklyn that's right
up your alley.  Irom Shipwright makes several WW-1 vessels you may be
interested in.

MY ERROR NIGEL!  The Iron Shipwright WW-1 Brooklyn is on the
Modelwarships.com web site in the whats new section.
Shame...shame...shame on me for mixing the two site up.  Check it out!
modelwarships.com
