If you do a Google Image search for "fregatt nansen" (frigate nansen), you'll get quite a few hits.
Got about 200 pics. Without them, designing Nansen would be impossible. But I'm asking for more detailed pics. As You know (or maybe not), details are the key factor in scale modeling....

The problem may be, even if you ask for unclassified pictures, some of those details might be classified, and should not be supplied by milforum readers. If you cannot find more details in press pictures, I think your best bet might be to contact Norwegian military authorities directly.

Few exterior details of the ship are actually classified. During routine "open ship" for civilians of various nationalities, they are allowed to take pictures of anything they want as long as its not from the inside itself.
I'm not exactly sure what you need, Harpooner, considering you can see most of the details you are asking for in all the pictures you can find online.
Excellent pictures like this (all from open sources) gives away most of t...
According to this link, they are equipped with a "Maritime Partner Sjøbjørn 25 Mk II". You can see a silhoutte of it on this production page. Its the same as these pic...

Nice to see one of my photos being helpful in this process. Beautiful looking ship.
Which one?
I think the last one in your post taken from the front as it was docked in Oslo. At least I
think it is mine, as I took pics from that position that day that I uploaded here somewhere....

Thank you very much for sharing, Harpooner. So far the hull looks quite impressive, and I can only imagine how the final result will look like. Just let me know if you need any further reference material.
I don't know anything about paper modeling, but would it be possible to order an copy of your finished product? If you have all the different parts already cut out, would it be too hard to assemble one by myself?...
Harpoon, you just made my day. This is nothing short of immensely impressive! Considering that this is an paper model designed from the ground up, I can't even describe how impressed I am.
Now, what do I have to do to get an exact copy of this model in my own living room? I'm guessing it would be impossible for me to buy the design and assemble it myself, and equally impossible for you to just sell me a finished model and mail it to me...?

I use advanced 3D modeling&engineering software. All what I need to do, is to say to my computer, what I want him to do . But thank You for words of recognition. I'm also impressed.
Great work Harpooner! Just one small detail. There seems to be one additional Mk41-cell in front of the bridge! It would of course be great to double the rather small weaponsload on the Nansens....
