The Ship Model Forum

That is a gorgeous model. Well done.

Beautiful Hiei. I have this in my pile of "to do" kits, though I plan to include the Laffey closing on the behemoth.

You mentioned that you used Veteran's turrets. Is there a big issue with those included in the kit?

Wow, what an amount of detail in this scale! That pagoda alone is very impressive.

Congrats!

Impressive work with the water and the model. Congratulations.

[quote="AJohnson"]Hi Jose



If I remember correctly I use Tamiya buff with a slight brown oil wash. Never been too happy with shiny white blast bags.

Been working on the old girl on and off since 2011. It has Fujimi's own PE plus Veteran models turret set.

Hope you like it?
