With the recent publication of issue #99 of the SCR, I've been thinking: what are your favorite articles from past issues?
"Modeling the Thresher/Permit Class SSNs (The Director's Cut)" by Steve Reichmuth (SCR-49, June 2002) has long been a favorite of mine. It was actually a revised reprint of his original article published in SCR-18, in Sept 1994. In it Steve chronicled his award winning scratch build of a 1/96 USS Permit (SSN-594) for static display. I found it to be both well written and documented with good photos. It introduced new modeling techniques to me and also exposed me to the history of that particular class of boats. I referred to it regularly when first detailing my own 1/96 ThorDesign Permit as USS Thresher -- and again 9 years later when re-detailing it as USS Guardfish (SSN-612).
So which articles make your SCR hall of fame?
