Guest PetrolGator Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 For those of us who love USN battleships, BlueRidgeModels, partnered with Tom's Modelworks and A2Z Productions has mas an affordable and AWESOME cage mast which is damn near spot on. The lead of the line is intended for the Maryland and Colorado kits from Trumpeter but can be adapted to West Virginia or the Tennessee class "standard type" BB's without difficulty. I've messed with these in person. They rock. Painting is easy and, unlike PE cage masts, they won't collapse when you try to put 'em up. I might have to chop off my Maryland's masts for them. Brandon, the owner, has posted on a number of forums that this line is gonna be expanded. I'm excited, being a sucker for old USN ships. http://www.freetimehobbies.com/1-700-accurate-cage-mast-advanced-upgrade-set-for-trumpeter-uss-maryland/
dmorrissette Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 Cool. Chris. See my PM too Dave
Mark Deliduka Posted February 28, 2014 Report Posted February 28, 2014 I saw these at Colorado. Brandon's son is a member of my St. Crispin's Irregulars group too. They really did well on those cage masks.
Spruemeister Posted February 28, 2014 Report Posted February 28, 2014 Scale them up to 1/350. Take my money. Please. Rick L.
Guest PetrolGator Posted February 28, 2014 Report Posted February 28, 2014 Give it a little time, Rick. This is the FIRST of a line. ;)
