New project for 2009?

[]Hmmm I been eyeballing the Andria Doria. Price is good. Nice looking ship, smaller italian but with interseting turrets and secondaries. My birthday is coming up...I may have to treat myself...heh heh heh...I'm lovin it.... []

 

Hey Curt, this may be a silly question but how many ships do you really need?? As it is, we don't know whether to call you Axis or Allied or French!!![]

It's very simple Jay. He is no longer allowed to represent any side. He is all over the map. So.... his opinion in axis and allied taunts will fall on deaf ears. I banish him for sure from the axis of evil. I don't think we need his kind swinging back and forth muddling up our axis perfection!!!! Agreed!??!

(evil grin)

 

Curt, why dont you do a real unusual boat. Im thinking of an ARA Rivadavia for ship #2, or even a HMS Vanguard. This will be later of course.

 

Hey Boomer I am doing a Vanguard at the moment and there are two others being constructed in our area. I to will be all over the map and Curt I love the AD she is one pretty ship.

 

I's like to do a vangaurd, using greg mcfadden's dual cannons.oh, thats a thought. I almost did an AD for my first ship, but i liked the deal i got for the spee, and took it.

 

Craig, I agree, sorry Curt, your French!!

Boomer, DON'T GIVE HIM ANY MORE IDEAS!!!!! Don't you know what can happen?

Ouch such harsh words Jay.

 

Gotta say.... if the Faluche fits, he must be french! Maybe NEWF should move to France.... they are practically the same... I mean the grammer alone.....

 

Tisk Tisk. What ship should Curt build. Hmmm Maybe he should build the Minnow. Use for a three hour sortie

 

I gave up the idea for now. Instead I ordered 2 books one on WW 1 SHIPS only and one on Japanese Battleships. I am trying to get Conways Warship Directory and IRONCLADS Pre-dreadnoughts. Lots of research material there.

 

You might find a ship or two that you like [][][8D]

 

Or you might find five, you never know.

 

Wow, not much chatter going on lately.

 

I agree Chuck.

 

It's XMAS seasons boys. Everybody is busy. Normal for this time of year. It will pick up after New Years.

 

I got my first book and finished it that evening. When it comes to these types of books I am like a sponge. Best little book on the subject matter I have had yet. Great color illustrations of the other clases like ISE, NAGATO, FUSO and great technical data.
I am still awaiting my other book.

 

It is also good to read when the snow and fog hits.

 

I finished reading my second book Battleships of WW1. Great book.

 

There will be no new construction to speak of here.... things are in full swing for the rest of life that is happening.... although I still will order a kit..... when the exchange is better! Not sure which one.... thinking class two maybe... or three.... something quick and allied
