11:05 It’s an arm with rope ladders attached that swung outward for when tenders were moored alongside the ship to allow easy boarding for crew members .Magnificent build !
@@BarcelPL The torpedo nets you mean were used during ww1, but soon retired cause of the massive danger of getting damaged nets (metal!) in the screws and also loosing allmost all of their protection when the ships goes faster. Torpedo nets were used later, but only on moored ships and as far i know with some distance and not directly on ship mounted. Also ship mounted torpedo nets arms were all along the ship, not only on two spots. You can see them on the early pictures (pre 1927 on wikipedia) of Kongo.
The arm is called a "Derrick" that swings out,the ladders are called "Jacob's" Ladders and the lines are called "Lizard Line's".They used to attach small boats,the Lizard Line's keep the small boats attached in a position so people can get in and out of the boats
I love watching these videos, but I don’t think I would ever attempt something with this much photo etch at that scale. Beautiful job! Thanks for sharing.
Four months absolutely well spent.....what an amazing job and in such a small scale as well. How you dealt with the myriad number of miniscule PE is gob-smackingly incredible. Thanks for sharing so will be checking out to see what next you have in store.
I'm really impressed with your amazing finished build. Remember the longer the struggle getting there the more satisfying is the result ! Looking forward to your second 1/700 scale Ship ⚓😄👍🇦🇺
You did an absolutely amazing job on this build! I have never seen so much PE on a single model, and I thought I had a lot on my AH-64 I recently finished LOL. Also that was a very nice touch putting the flag decal on foil to make it wavy.
excellent work! you are not only an artist but you are also gifted with incredible patience 👍 personally only the idea of using photoetched parts or resin parts, with all the madness that is needed to use them, makes me want to give up the hobby of building models 😱
Superb. A warship originally built here in Northern England. ✌️🏴🇺🇸

Ain't those for extending torpedo nets?

A pleasure to watch how this work of art comes to life, many thanks for sharing with us
Good to hear you liked it
I'd encase that thing in a custom glass case so no threat of dust could ever touch that masterpiece. Amazing work!
Thanks, It's definitely crossed my mind. It's so fragile I feel like I can break this just by looking at it
WOW! I didn't realize how tiny it was until you put the paint bottle next to it. Nice work!
Thank you! I always like the perspective photos
Excellent build, amazing result and a very well put video! Congrats in all aspects!
Thanks and cheers!

Quite ambitious in that scale and very nicely done.
👍👍👍👍

Thanks, so am I. Not sure what it will be yet but it will certainly be a while based on the time commitment with this one!
Great PE applying !!! Looks so great too.
👍 Thanks!
HI awesome job for first ship!!! That one piece is a boat boom it is for securing the ships boats along side when at anchor .
Youre the first one to identify that part. Thanks! Always glad to learn a bit more.
Thars an amazing beautiful model of the Kongo.
Fantastic work, thanks for sharing!
👍👍👍👍👍
Great build. In about 30 years you'll have finished all of the capital ships of the IJN. Look forward to that project coming to fruition🙂
Easily the best looking battlecruiser. Sorry Hood fans but Kongo slaps
hahaha thank you!
imo, Derfflinger, Mackensen and Ersatz Yorck for me
