The Ship Model Forum

So for starters as I was never really happy with my West Virginia I'm planning to give it another go

I'm moving awzy from my balsa hulls and this is the new one so far.

I plan to cast three or for copies along with various parts from my previous build. Although I may just go new parts on the superstructure. The plan is to build WV, Tennesee and California. I may also strip the top deck off this Maryland and cast the hull to allow a Colorado.

They'll all use small parts from Tamiya Missourri and Iowas. But I am building again

Since I haven't posted in a while, heres some older builds. I'll probably submit a few to the gallerry. These are completed builds although I fudged a bit as Quincy isnt painted and Idaho needs completion. HMS Resolution, USS Guam, USS Nevada, USS Arkansas, USS Texas, USS West Virginia, USS Chenango, USS Ranier , USS San Fransisco , USS Helena , USS St louis , USS Quincy , USS Idaho. The Idaho may get stripped and refinished to cast the hull and various parts for the remainder of the class. They're simple builds but I like them. Thanks for allowing my narcisistic indulgance with the display.

Narcisistic indulgence is what the Picture Post is all about!

They look good, man, really good.
