All the photo's from the complete build off this ship are now seen at mine brickshelf folder. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=520125

I am agree whit that comment

All 3 ships where fun to build. The Smit bronco had a complete working 2x inline 6 cilinder engine and working propellors. Mine doghter loved the Stealdiep for playing. and mine favorite is the RPA 15, because of the difficault shape's of it. I want to make a next ship, but don't no jet which one, i think it must be bigger?

Sorry David only the RPA 15 is stil togehter, The Smit Bronco and the Staeldiep are complete in the inner struction off the RPA 15

This is now mine third ship i make in studless and olso mine best one

I can't change the topic title anymore

Many thanks to all the great reactions.

Finaly mine ship is finished and whas more than a month off hard work. The RPA 15 from the Port of Rotterdam is a harbour control and fire ship, and the model is 1 meter in lenght and 28cm in wide. The most off the ship is build in studdles and for the details i needed studded parts, like tile's and plates. The weight of the ship is just over 18 kg and about 27000 parts. I make allready some photo's, but mine studio whas to smal so the quealty is not the best. I will make later better outside photo's off it and i hope that than the real RPA 15 is on the background. A lot's off greetings Edwin I hope you like it all.

For one off the first time i am agree whit Alasdair Ryan. I want give mine moc's olso authentic model team look but build the most in it studless. The moc that i now building have the perfect looks, but the scale i am working in it a can't make the crane's full PF working It's eververy time a compromise.

But it's taste very good that caramel when your at the right way and not only this time your chassis whit al the technic is great, but your body is so far a beauty

Thanks all for your reactions, but it is not finnisht jet.

Best Jorge, I like your car so far and no that you don't like to make the body, but more what's under that body . But it's looks stunning so far

Looks very great RM8

Do you go to the Lowlug meeting?

I don't think this one it's taken apart ever !!

No i don't make my self instructions, but Gekke Ted wants too try to make a full LDD off it. I have seen the firts pictures off it and it's look Great, but i don't no he can keep up mine building speed. the total weight is when finnish is about 18 KG. And thanks D3K for your great comments. Greetings Edwin.

Thanks Tim. I hope when i must this take this ship apart, you want help me to take al the 15000 pins to put out.

Thanks

I am almost finnisht whit the RPA 15 and must now do only detail work and little changes, after 26000 pieces and have just put only about 300 pieces left and than it is no more a WIP, this is the last update before it's finnisht. Now must i make a new photo studio for make good pictures of it becouse it's so big mine studio is to small . I hope you enjoy the hole progress of building this ship and wand thanks everybody for the nice comments. A lots off greetings. Edwin.

At least the hull is finnisht and must now only finnish the deck and a lot off detail work, olso i started to make the smal crane on the drum and the base is there but must be olso work further out. I still waiting just over week now for the last BL order to finnish al the details. Greetings Edwin. And i must replace the pneumatic smal cilinder because i don't have it in yellow( this is a blue one whit a yellow sticker)

Finaly the Hull and the decks and the cabine are now at one togehter and i am waiting now more than a week too get mine last BL order in house to finnisht the front of the hull. You can now see at the pictures how the deck go over in the higher front deck. When the parts are in house it's about 3 or 4 evening work to finnisht it complete and then must i look how the stickers must be made. Greetings Edwin.
