I dunno Dan - IT IS SO HARD TO FIND FAULT WITH YOUR WORK! You are well known for your research and accuracy - But do you have to follow it up with exquisite workmanship and scale accuracy? (Yardarms, weapons rigging are all in scale). How do you think that makes the rest of us feel?

I think that you need to build the entire Kagero class with each ship represented in all of it's wartime configurations.

You're a cruel man, Lester. So very, very cruel.

I thank you all, very much. It was fun, thankfully.

And now, to return (or to attempt it anyway) to my previously scheduled torture and endurance project.

I got to see it in person today at the Hudson Valley Miniatures show in Poughkeepsie NY. All I can say is, the photos don't do her justice. Wow!
