title says it all. the source of the design is unknown, found it in an scan of an booklet of around this date (exact year is guessed from the other contents on the page) and it might just be an landlubbers render of this ship. (it certainly looks like that :P )

it might work though, various parts are in exactly or only slightly moved positions from the real ship.

any comments?

Boy that's ugly, best they didn't proceed with this design.

I agree ;)
still, it is an interesting design, and it would look mucht better if they lowered the entire bridge-funnel-radar section one deck....

You're using the wrong gun. I'm not exactly sure which model you're using, but it should probably be the Modele 1964 or 1968. The only difference between the two as far as I can see is that the 1968 doesn't have onboard sights.
The Modele 100 really needs an update btw.

The one on the new parts sheet should do the trick. Be aware that the area between the barrel and the cooling line should be whit/transparent and not grey as it appears on the sheet.

Anoher thing, I'd move the helicopter down closer to the pad. This is just a personal thing though.

this is the only reference work.

@ bezo: it's not that bad, is it?

@ thiel: will fix the helo, and I'm looking for the gun right now.
