Hello Martin,
 Yes you are correct I have mis-used "Dreadnought" as a generic term but the Japanese did acquire several battleships and cruisers from Great Britain. There are several other classes of ships I'm a little uncertain about, i'm sure I'll work it out, Any Idea about additional flat castings?

Errrrrrrrrmm ..they are pre dreadnaughts .HMS Dreadnaught was a huge step foreward after these types.Look up Russian navy and Japanese Navy  in a  model ship forum .a lot exist .I know a lot ships of this era had fancy white hulls and tan tops  and funnels but whether that applied to the the relevant navies I am not sure .It looks a great set to paint .I envy you

Wow, big set - should make quite a display.  Looks like something quite different.

Recently picked up this set of Ernst Heinrichsen Sea Battle 1905 intended to be the Battle of Tsushima. I'm a little disappointed in the ship representations, not much in guns visible in the castings, was wondering if anyone had or knows where I can find a picture of these in the finished paint and/or where I might find some additional casting with a more of a  dreadnought feel?
