Hi all,
this is a great thread, and although dead for a long while it helped me understand the differences in appearance of the three ships.
Now this is not meant as a critique, but spurred from genuine interest and I would not go into it, if you two, Antonio and Abram, wouldn´t pay so much attention to detail. I have in my possesion a photo of Admiral Graf Spee using the Nord-Ostsee Kanal. I guess from the looks of it early 1936, before May.
Please note the crest on the rear turret. It is missing in your drawings. So I wonder when it was painted on and when it was erased. My guess: when restyled to the assignment in Spain. What do you think?
Best,
Deichkind
