Starting the Italian Navy with the Condottieri group of light cruisers with 5 subgroups in the class, 'evolving' in each subsequent build. Starting with the Duca d'Aosta sub-class (Group 4), 5th group (Duca degli Abruzzi), and the 3rd group (Raimondo Montecuccoli) for the first release (48IT01A). Back down to 2nd (Luigi Cadorna) then 1st group Alberto da Giussano for the next release (48IT01B).
Please note there will also be a proper 48IT01 comprising of all *12* ships of the class once all ships are done.

Any chance of you moving up a notch in scale to 1/2400? I am heavily committed to that scale and do not wish to start a new scale. Your models are exquisite in their level of detail.

Hi Ed, sure I could rescale my ships up to 1/2400 scale. Do you have a particular ship in mind in the Italian Navy list and/or the previous releases? (Apart from *all* of them :D)
ReplyDeleteCheers and many thanks!
