Hi All,

Today I found there are some master plans on my working desk.
These are Iowa class master plans from Tom of the Floating Dry dock that I've ordered some weeks ago.
And I've ordered 5 reference books for this class too.

The Baic kit is 1/350 Tamiya New Jersey old or new upgraded kit.
THis New upgraded kit will come at July.

These sets will be released separately as
35007F1 1/350 USS Iowa Modern Detal up set
35008F1 1/350 USS New Jersey Modern Detal up set
35009F1 1/350 USS Missouri BATTLESHIP Detal up set (also base kit is New jersey not Missouri)
35010F1 1/350 USS Wisconsin Modern Detal up set

Each set will have contents as

1. Wooden deck.
Each ship will have each own wooden deck shape.

2. Turned brass parts:
As same contents of previous Yamato or Warspite detail up set, all possible parts will be realized as scribed brass parts. we are trying to realize the Bitt as brass at this time.

3. Photo Etching parts
Mr. S.H. Park is digging for this class research now.

4. Resin.
Veteran also will join some Parts as Yamato and Essex class.

5. Dry Transfer
We've already designed Dry transfer and now wating for printing.

We try to show the first product by July

Keep your eyes on this Thread.

If you have any suggestion or advice, please post and leave message on this thread.

Thank you
Keumho Kim

Will there be ship-specific resin parts to modify some of the structural differences, such as the different upper superstrucures (New Jersey's being signicifantly different from the other three), and the flared-out platform at Iowa and Wisconsin's bows (as compared with the other two)?

I think water should be fully filled in tub for better realization.

Sure..
We are digging the shape differences.
We would realize these with PE, Resin or both.
Thank you
Kim

You can do it from resin so it can fit a presindent. :cool_1:
I think one of the Arsenal sitting figures can be used as a nude. It has a lovely american flesh color.

If I have some more time I would try to desgin Teddy portrait as PE not Resin...

This would come out after I'm about 85% finished with my New Jersey. Hopefully you'll be doing a WWII set for when I build that New Jersey!

I'm very excited and will be buying the WW2 Iowa and KGV sets. Hopefully these sets note the differences between each ship. I guess I will also be waiting to build my North Carolina.

One last question. Are there any plans for a Roma or Pola set in 1/350. These are the only two plastic Italian ships available. It would be great to at least bring the Pola up to 2012 standards.
