Although I love scratchbuilding 1/1000 scale models, the process is very time-consuming, and I wanted to play some pre-dreadnought battles with this shelved project in mind.
So I returned to it, but I'm going to produce the models in 1/2000 scale instead. I already started working on the Charles Martel and three Orlando/Infanta Maria Teresa-class armored cruisers.
Ships of the pre-dreadnought era are generally easy to construct at this scale, as their superstructures are relatively not very cluttered, very boxy so to speak, with a pair of turrets and a big central casemate battery.
I also have four ships of the Iron Duke-class superdreads which only need basing, so I shall go on with that, and perhaps the project will gather enough momentum so I can continue with repairing and rebasing the rest of the collection.
