all ships looking great, keep up the good work!

[quote="Haijun watcher"]They're both coming along nicely.

So you plan to later hand-paint the [i]Sodak[/i]'s AA guns after spraying the hull and superstructure?

I thought the AA guns were pretty much Navy Blue as well? Per MS21 camo requirements.[/quote]


yeah, once I finish adding the 20mm I will be painting them the 5-N per required by ms 21. I just work in stages: I add all the AA suites before I go and paint them.

Last build which is waiting for the others to be finished is IHP 1/700 Uss Montana kitbashed with a tamiya Uss Missouri. Uss Wisconsin in the back for size and layout comparisons.

going to be in the MS 22 like the Wisconsin and other late war warships

next build is 1/700 Uss Sigourney DD-643 converted from a Tamiya 1/700 Uss Cushing. Using Tom's Modelworks Photo Etch set. Havent started painting yet, currently still assembling and detailing the model. Will have to be a few alterations like the 40mm next to the forward bridge were actually 20mm singles on the Sigourney.

My new thing is to start working on more then one project at a time apparently.

First build is 1/700 Uss South Dakota from trumpeter and using Tom's Modelworks Photo etch set.

Paints:
White Ensign Models 5-N navy blue
Model masters 20-B deck blue
