The Ship Model Forum

Hi everyone!

Five years ago I started building this amazing ship from scratch. Due to a lot of other interests, there was not time left for making progress and I haven't done any work on it for almost one and half years. Lately, I found myself procrastinating. And hell yeah, let's break the habit and get some work done! So the objective is to carry on and finish the model.

The main hull structure is almost done and prepared. Hope, it will have been in paint within a week, so that I can fully focus on the details later on.

Great project!

Very interesting!

I've not seen a Japanese cruiser done in these larger scales, so it'll be very interesting to see how much detail you can cram into this here model. They're such beautifully-menacing ships, they deserve to be built, and it looks like she's in good hands.

Wow that's wonderful work.

Is this to be Remote Controlled and how did you make the plating?

Thanks
John

Looking forward to this. A lot of detail indeed, but the looks
