    Microscale USS Fletcher Class Destroyer —Mattias Martensson
   Hi all fans of ship models! Some preview photos are now available on Brickshelf of my latest creation. (URL) design is inspired by Daniel Siskind's innovative method of constructing the hull. (URL) By using 1x2x1 panels and 1x2 plates the hull sides (...) (19 years ago, 7-Nov-05, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.loc.se, lugnet.build.military) !! 
   
        Re: Microscale USS Fletcher Class Destroyer —John Barnes
     (...) Spotted this model on brickshelf last night. So glad you've owned up to being the builder! And no, I'm not specifically a model ship fan, but I am into micro and I think you've done a fantastic job. Thanks for the excellent write up in your (...)

         Re: Microscale USS Fletcher Class Destroyer —Mattias Martensson
     (...) Thanks John for your kind words. May I ask you and other more experienced micro-builders. What is accepted or not while buildning. I cut hoses to the lengths I need but I don't cut other hard parts. No glue I guess to join parts or to increse (...) (19 years ago, 10-Nov-05, to lugnet.build.military)
    
         Re: Microscale USS Fletcher Class Destroyer —John Barnes
     (...) You're asking the wrong person that question :) I tend to make parts I need ;) With great care and attention to finish so most people don't even realise they're aren't original Lego parts. But it is a last resort even for me ! JB (19 years ago, 10-Nov-05, to lugnet.build.military)
   
        Re: Microscale USS Fletcher Class Destroyer —James Wilson
     That's really nice. My first thoughts were of the old Tente ships - yours really looks like a ship because of the smooth hull. I especially like the asymetric construction in the bow to get everything to fit - clever solution! Would love to see more (...) (19 years ago, 8-Nov-05, to lugnet.build.military)
    
         Re: Microscale USS Fletcher Class Destroyer —Mattias Martensson
     (...) Thanks James. Yes it took some time to find this solution which fits well into the bow area and also allowes for mounting the farward 5 inch gun on the centerline. /Mattias (19 years ago, 10-Nov-05, to lugnet.build.military)
   
        Re: Microscale USS Fletcher Class Destroyer —Daniel Siskind
     Sweet! But where's the rest of the task force? ;) (19 years ago, 8-Nov-05, to lugnet.build.military)
    
         Re: Microscale USS Fletcher Class Destroyer —Mattias Martensson
     (...) Thanks Dan. Good to see you haven't lost all interest in Lego. The task force is building up but the yard is a bit unorganized as you can see on this picture (URL) anything yourself? /Mattias (19 years ago, 9-Nov-05, to lugnet.build.military)
   
        Re: Microscale USS Fletcher Class Destroyer —Lindsay Frederick Braun
   (...) I like it a huge amount. I need to build some wargaming models, I think! The adaptation of brick-curvature to plate-curvature is a very nice evolution, and I love those AA guns. all best LFB (19 years ago, 10-Nov-05, to lugnet.build.military)
   
        Re: Microscale USS Fletcher Class Destroyer —Mattias Martensson
   (...) Thanks Lindsay. The guns should actually be twins but I found no solotion small enough. /Mattias (19 years ago, 10-Nov-05, to lugnet.build.military)
