Re: 1:144 SS Tautog (1959) Trumpeter
Some work on the Bofor 40mm single deck gun located on the front cigarette deck. I purchased guns from Nautilus Models. The first set came through really broken up and I requested replacements that arrived a short time later, but they weren't much better. I guess that's what I get so I did the best I could with what I had. I was surprised that the set didn't come with any photo etch so I scratch built some details.
The 40 looked like this on the boat,
And here is my work,

The 4" 50 cal deck gun required some clean up and details.
