David, I hark back to the original comment..."Hobbyboss seem clueless about the layout." I submit Exhibit A... http://www.hobbyboss.com/index.php?g=home&m=product&a=show&id=1866&l=en It clearly shows that Hobbyboss, far from being clueless, knows of what they speak. It is not the manufacturers fault that some who were not as versed in the idiosycrasies of this vessel got it ***-backwards in their build-up or that others craved symmetry in their build-up. Th cluelessness lies elsewhere. ![]() ![]() ![]() Perhaps Hobbyboss should get credit for having produced such an arcane vessel in the first place. Once purchased, you can position the rear turret any way you please. Actually, fore & aft seems to some to be more aesthetically pleasing....to each their own.....we're in The Golden Age Of Modelling remember? ![]() further down the page is showing the 18 inch gun pointing to the rear. It only pointed one way and that's starboard and not any other way. Hobbyboss seem clueless about the layout. ![]() I think this is the only glimpse of these two kits on this 'walk-around' of the show. Other ship kits are featured - you need to scroll down to see these. https://www.themodellingnews.com/2025/05/tmn-on-tour-industry-day-2-sh |
