The Old Maru 45 is nearing completion.   Shown here on her first shakedown cruise, and on her way to the tailor shop for a DP fitting....Saville Row I might add.  Smiley

A bastard filly out of old Zam Zam, she's a beauty in spite of her dubious origins.  She'll probably come with a real wardrobe of deck cargo....and nationalities....ripe for plucking and plunder by packs of marauding Apaches, or fleet class subs.  Grin

Shown here in heavy seas sporting a maxed-out pitch factor.

While her details and textures are not as yet finished, she is undergoing rigorous DP testing.   Tongue

OK, Collin has finished the fouled-up initial  Zamzam effort as the Old Maru45 (Shots Below) for use in his long anticipated BPF campaign.  (Talk about a tease...I hate to have to wait for her.Cool

Now we're moving on to the real Zamzam.  Cheesy

OOPS!   Looks like the whole Zamzam thing was just a smokescreen for a fleet of Japanese marus for the Collin's BPF (British Pacific Fleet) Campaign, '45-'49.   Huh

We've been snookered by that sly old reprobate.   It'll go down in the annals of CFS2 as the infamous Zamscam.    Angry  Tongue   Sad   Et tu, Brute?  Cry

Roll Eyes Grin Grin Grin

OK, OK already!   You got the Old Maru and now you've finished the IJA Trooper (as seen below...nice landing craft on deck BTW), but those ain't doing us MB types any good....as you are holding them in reserve for your BPF campaign.  Sad

Let's get on with the original project...poor Zamzam, the orphan stepchild.  Grin

OMG!   It's 'Away all boats!'   Is that Jeff Chandler on the bridge?   Roll Eyes

OK, I give up.  We'll never see Zamzam.  Angry

Well, maybe not.   Cry

SS Zamzam has fallen victim to Collin's distraction with the 'on again/off again' BPF campaign and the ships to populate it.  So don't hold your breath for a Zamzam...film whenever.  Grin

Ya miserable pile of drool, yer get me to make these models then moan when there's a limit to the available slipways. Angry

The next model is now on number 8 hull, for the 1940 version but there will be soon the 1945 BPF version. So stop whining about some old Egyptian liner and get making missions.

I am awful....I know.  But they're so pretty...I can't help myself.  Embarrassed

Missions.....missions for the BPF?   I'm deeply involved in research to cure my ignorance of the historical background.  Undecided

Looks like HMS Dido is on the ways....RN AAA cruiser, roughly equivalent to the USN Atlanta class.  Cheesy
