1/1500 SMS Emden (Scratchbuilt)

The model is completely built from scratch and depicts the ship as she appeared early on during her raiding cruise in  the Pacific and Indian Oceans. The hull is made from boxwood, the balance of the detail is brass, and the rigging is a mix of copper and Nitinol wire. The sea base is carved from Nootka Cyprus and painted. As usual no resins or anything there, just paint. The base for the case is made from olive. The scale is 1/1500 or 125’ to the inch.
