I knew you couldn't resist Michael  Good progress on the new kit  but try finishing the other old lady, it'll be cool seeing them next to each other for comparison. Jose

Hi Michi, I have already seen some pictures of your first Yamato where I could only say "Bravo" ... and where I almost had nearly a heart attack when you have graded her as failed. With this background + all the images of the current Yamato I still saw, she can only become an absolute top model! Cheers, Christian

Hi Guys,
Michael is a very good friend and I have seen this treasure already in reality. The deck is a custom made PONTOS deck.Its made especially for THIS yamato build, it was necessary because of many corrections Michael made. They would not correspond with the cutouts on the standard deck.The ship is the old tool kit from Tamiya, dressed up with the Lion Roar superdetail set, the full program of Ishida,some parts of WEM, Barrels from Master( including all 25mm Barrels), equipment of Veteran and a lot of scratch build corrections. In my opinion its one of the best if not the best 1:350 Yamato built till now. Best regards
Marc

Michael, I'm not captivated by the Yamato (or her sister) enough to shell out for the new tool kit, there are too many other IJN subjects that do fascinate me and that played a far more significant role in the Pacific War. But, after following your build I'd certainly be prepared to take on the old tool kit. Your build is very, very impressive. Beautiful detail work, clean PE, great paint work, looks like the whole package to me. I'm figuring that with the new tool kit coming out I might be able to pick up an "old tool" kit at a bargain basement price somewhere and watching what you have done with her I'd be very tempted! Believe me, I'd be proud to have that model on display in my office, where my better efforts go on display.
Congratulations, on some great work. Can't wait to see her finished.
Bob

Bonjour Nicolas!! Happy new year to you too, hope your fine! I've spend a few weeks at home, and enjoyed the time together with my family. But now I'm back! Well, the 25mm triple a guns are a nightmare, but I hope to finish them within the next few days.    Some more news soon.... Best regards Michael

Hi Michi, in my opinion there´s no way Tamyia added details, which you haven´t shown in your Yamato till now - So please go on with your beautiful work! I think there are enough kits left in your warehouse which are still waiting for to be built -of course after you have finished your Yamato cheers... bis bald, hau rein.... Daniel
