That looks like a very promising project. Well I'll take a seat🙂
You changed the port camouflage scheme and not follow the instructions(?) – what source do you use?

Actually this is pure imagination 🙂 I did not want to look it like Z-25 and I had little info about Z-23 before (one source cited it be completely gray initially before changing to the standard camo). Also the armament will be somewhat lacking as most likely there were many more 2 cm AA guns. In addition, while being anchored in Trondheim, either before or after the attack, Z-23 was - according to one source - the first destroyer to have been equipped with a dual 15 cm turret... Well, so much for accuracy in my model 🙂

Thanks! I liked the kit, it has a low parts count and photo etch parts that even my clumsy hands could fold ????. I am building Revell's 1/72 kit also (which is 5 times the scale so 25 times the volume) but the detail on the 1/350 kit is also ok...
