Model Forum / General / Models / March 2005"Best" model co. for pre WWII battleships?
their design seems so crude compared to the sleek WII battleships. who makes the best 1900-1930 battleship. Would like it to be at least 12" or more in length (she would too) 1/700, 1/500? thx - Craig : their design seems so crude compared to the sleek WII battleships. who : makes the best 1900-1930 battleship. Would like it to be at least 12" : or more in length (she would too) : 1/700, 1/500? I don't know that there is a "best", because I am not sure there are that many making ships in this era. I'd suggest you consult the warship model website: http://www.steelnavy.com/index.htm Bruce  Signature------------------------------------------------------------------------ "I like bad!" Bruce Burden Austin, TX. - Thuganlitha The Power and the Prophet Robert Don Hughes Probably any on the Big Five by IHP...they would be BB's 43, 44, 45, 46 or 48. > their design seems so crude compared to the sleek WII battleships. who > makes the best 1900-1930 battleship.

She was launched in 1893 and distinguished herself in the Spanish-American war of 1898 so she may be a little early for your needs. A website I had bookmarked for the day I build her says she's 19" long and 4" wide.
