StkhlmDK´s USS Flagg

Hey, I received my USS yesterday evening and thought you may be interested in seeing some of the build process and the finished product. Its been mounted on a 2 meter long closet-door and still extend 25 cm beyond that :-) Unfortunately it was not in as good shape as hoped/thought so I am now trying to locate parts together with The Kraken Wakes on the US Ebay site and/or Yojoe so if we have any US-members who can help us out either with parts directly or with getting something collected in one spot and then shipped please send us a PM or write in here.

Here is a link to the gallery on my site: http://www.action-force.dk/ussflagg

I will be posting some dio-pics later as I have had an idea brewing while laying sleepless over the weekend so keep posted in the Dio thread ;-)

Lord have mercy - it's a beast! Your study had been invaded! Looks awesome! I now want one, and am wondering if the good lady would notice if one suddenly appeared in the Toy Room.

"No love, it's always been there - you must've just not noticed it before...."

there is no way to describe it other than f***ing huge. nice pics stkhlmdk, good luck finding the extra bits...

mine is in a slightly sorrier state and needs a few more parts but as ill be customising im not too concerned... going to build myself a nice table as at the moment its taking up all my not inconsiderable floor space...

Very interesting pics stkhlmdk!

I don't have this, nor will probably ever have one, so its very interesting to see yours come together.

The condition in the pics looks great as well! Nice and clean.

And that's why this beast is nick named USS Lounge Table!

Eveytime when I see one of these I get this "Wow!" feeling. Imagine being 8, finding this under the Christmas tree. Would you have survived the stroke? I know I wouldn't have.

Some tough parts you still need. Buying parts for the Flagg can be just as money consuming as buying the ship itself. :-(

You are always welcome but do wait until this crappy winter-season is over, Denmark is much nicer in summertime and we have a wonderfull street in downtown Aarhus with lots of pubs and danish beer :-D
