German Admiral Scheer 1/500 scale ww2 recognition replica complete

Right on the heels of completing Scharnhorst, the design, printing, and assembly of my Admiral Scheer Pocket Battleship/Panzerschiff/Heavy Cruiser, was a piece of cake. Everything just came together and worked the first time.

My next design will be more challenging and diverges from the authentic 1/500 scale WW2 German recognition sets with a subject that I have always wanted to see included in them – the Graf Zeppelin Aircraft Carrier.

Update Aug. 15, 2025

I just finished recreating the entire USN WWII German Naval Recognition Set (and then some) in 1/500 scale, check out the results.

Admiral Scheer German 1/500 scale recognition replica, joins my Blender fleet

The Blender work on Admiral Scheer is done, I had a good weather window to print my finished Scharnhorst design but blew it working on Scheer instead. Printing Scharnhorst will have to wait. With some luck I’ll be able to print the resin parts for both if another good day comes along.
