I asked a friend to cast me the basic hull and superstructure so i could tweak around the cast offs instead of damaging the lone hull i had...

main deck gun mount for 3"50 gun emplaced...

Great little builds Jepot! :thumbs_up_1:

I am especially interested in your PF-15. I saw your 1/350 build and it was excellent!
