Prinz Eugen was an Admiral Hipper-class heavy cruiser, the third of a class of five vessels. She served with Germany's Kriegsmarine during World War II. The ship was laid down in April 1936, launched in August 1938, and entered service after the outbreak of war, in August 1940. She was named after Prince Eugene of Savoy, an 18th-century general in the service of Austria.
Prinz Eugen saw action during Operation Rheinübung, an attempted breakout into the Atlantic Ocean with the battleship Bismarck in May 1941. The two ships destroyed the British battlecruiser Hood and moderately damaged the battleship Prince of Wales in the Battle of the Denmark Strait. Prinz Eugen was detached from Bismarck during the operation to raid Allied merchant shipping, but this was cut short due to engine troubles.
After the German collapse in May 1945, she was surrendered to the British Royal Navy before being transferred to the US Navy as a war prize. After examining the ship in the United States, the US Navy assigned the cruiser to the Operation Crossroads nuclear tests at Bikini Atoll. Having survived the atomic blasts, Prinz Eugen was towed to Kwajalein Atoll, where she ultimately capsized and sank in December 1946. The wreck remains partially visible above the water approximately two miles northwest of Bucholz Army Airfield, on the edge of Enubuj. One of her screw propellers was salvaged and is on display at the Laboe Naval Memorial in Germany

hi fellow builders if you enjoyed today's video please leave a like and comment, thats really helps small channels grow

[@user-lh5fp7bf2c]

Im working on a 1/200 scale paper & cardboard Prince Eugen all from scratch no kit no instructions. And i have built it with all compartments/rooms. All individual steel plates and actual armor scheme ect. This probably has me sold on using wood for planking. Yours is looking incredible, glad i seen this.

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you, I’m glad you found my channel

[@deeharris1908]

Must agree, labour of love is rite, compared 2 wat they suggested with the full size plank strips, really does look the part

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Tbh dee I enjoyed adding all the deck planks and it didn’t really take me that much longer mate

[@stevenwheaton874]

John, my friend, you have the patience of a Saint. I don't know if I would have the patience you have. I'm just happy I can watch you build this.I haven't been on for awhile I know. I'm doing well. How are you doing? Well I hope. Take care, and I'll see you next time.

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Hi Steven, it really was a labour of love, like you all know, I always like to add my own stamp to every model kit I build

[@cjsrf9430]

great job

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you my friend

[@eddywells5689]

Thank you DD

[@travisweeks7819]

Wow she's looking awesome great job👍👌🍺🍺🍻😎

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you travis, I’ve enjoyed adding the extra fine decking

[@GregWilson635]

Smaller planks look fantastic. Definitely a test of patience. Think I would have to walk away after an hour

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

I would say I spent around 20 hours over the last 10 days making and fitting the deck Greg

[@usssaratogacv3lefevre978]

Yes, a real labor if love. It dose look a lot better than the wider planks. Thanks John.

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Ye mate, the planks just look a lot more interesting on the eye

[@steve1315]

Always good to watch John

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you for your support Steve

[@ralphford4302]

[@steve1315]

Do it Ralph.

[@ScoutSniper3124]

Can't wait to see you finish it!

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you Ryan, should take a couple of months to get it finished

[@andrewgrace4410]

Amazing planking, so patient

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you Andrew

[@sftommy01]

on my scratchbuilt SMS Emden I made the deck planking out of coffee stirrers...but with an exacto knife - thousands of them 🤣

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Builds really are a labour of love to the modeller

[@genojoe3176]

Amazing painstaking detail! Love it!

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you geno

[@davemacbuilds5232]

its looking fantastic John, you,ve done a great job so far, looking forward to the next one

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you Dave, I’m up the date with the build now, so I will try and film a couple of videos next week

[@mikehewitt6484]

Great technique John 👍🏻 The semi scarf joint is an effective way to make the planks seem continuous and more glue surface compared to the butt joint. The decking looks so much more authentic using smaller scale planks too, well worth the extra time and effort.

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you Mike, I found the joints to be a lot more efficient at hold the next plank, and the deck planking was a labour of love

[@vicparratt7523]

Hi John the smaller planks look so much better than the wide ones. I build matchstick models so I know how painstaking the work can be, but it is so worth it. Best wishes Vic.

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

I thought that vic when I was adding the planks, it felt like matchstick model building

[@anniepoulton8501]

Looks great so far John, always love your tips 😊❤

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you Annie, they say knowledge is power, so if that’s true, I won’t to give everyone the knowledge

[@johntreloar8203]

Very nice work John, looks so much more to scale.

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you John ye I totally agree with you about the scale

[@jeffhardick]

Very impressive John...definitely a labor of love,and you're right, the smaller plank sizes do look much better then the full size that the plans call for. Loving the build so far, loving the progress...cheers from across the pond.

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you jeff, 5mm planks are only really suitable for ship of 1/84 1/64 scale at 1/250 deck planks would be around 1mm or smaller, I’m so glad your enjoying the build series

[@davidhaynes5163]

[@Occre]

@@Johnbuildsiconic Appreciate it John!!!

[@sbenitez1768]

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Thank you

[@robertspeicher5047]

Really nice "work". Art...Had a thought of using a 3D printer to cut the parts out of aluminum to build the ship..

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Hi Robert, I’ve not had a use for a 3d printer, it’s something I would like to have a Practice with in the future

[@davidhaynes5163]

Hi John great build as normal what dimensions were your small planking strips please as I would like to do this in mine if possible 🙏👍

[@Johnbuildsiconic]

Hi David, there is a video in the playlist where I make the small planks
