SSModel USN WWI-era dreadnoughts

Posted by Jeff Spencer on September 10, 2023, 14:57:34

I am very interested in the SSModel WWI-era Arkansas and North Dakota. I am leery of their advertising, though. They appear to use the same images for all scales from 1:1250 to 1:350, which benefits the smaller scales, and makes them appear to have an amazing amount of detail.

Has anybody bought one of these ships? I am very keen on the them because 3D has given model designers a way to approximate the look of cage masts; the bogey that has kept a fleet of great dreadnoughts from being modeled.

Any help would be very appreciated. Reviews or images of completed models would be helpful.
