hi there, first post here, normally I frequent RC Groups but I have come here to do some probing to get some info for some of the models I am building, so I may as well show off current work in progress.
She needs some work on her superstructure paint work but that will be done last.
This is Nord Icelandia, a model semi-scale research ship based on the hull of an offshore support ship, she is due to have her navigation lights installed when they arrive, along with her status lights on her mast that will show her to be restricted in her ability to manouvre, (red white red all round's i think, perhaps someone can confirm this), on her stern plate she will have her name and port of registry, which in her case is to be Dutch Harbor, Alasaka.
Here's a question for y'all, has anyone got any info on the placement of the IMO numbers on a scientific ship, particularly size of it, as she's somewhere between 1/87th scale and 1/96th scale.
I keep getting internal server errors on the IMO website, so I cant get any information on a usable IMO number, which I intend to be 2501 11 8(user handle, November, 2008 the November 2008 pertaining to the month and year of launch)
