Display Case for the 1/400 Jeanne D'Arc

One of the key lessons I learned early on was thinking about a model ship from the base up.  Since I am going to display the Jeanne D'Arc in a sea scape, I decided to explore possible display bases.  The kit measures approximately 18 inches in length and nearly 2.1 inches in width when complete.  Not too large, but still a good-sized model ship.

Once again, I am going to turn to the great folks at Grandpa's Cabinets.  I ordered the display case for my Heller Clemenceau from them and it turned out fantastic.  They have a number of display case options including popular sizes and custom options. as well as great customer service.  It took about three weeks from order to delivery.  If you are considering a display case for your model ships, I highly recommend them.

Since the ship is nearly 18 inches long,  I will order a 19x4x6 display case.  This will give me just over half an inch of clearance on either side of the base.   This should be plenty of room for the wake.
