re-do of old 1/535 Iowa revell

[Triumph68]

so much is getting on board so its hard to see what and where, so I made little indicators what has been added...

Fun project! A very small scale and not easy to work in. Glad to see that you are being innovative in your scratch techniques, the challenge is half the fun. Things always look better in person than in photos!

tried to build a small boat after 3 no good.... finally one that looks ok

something ... a detail I made ... didn't seem very good... too small... so I redid 60% bigger, left is new

and on all guns its...

[Triumph68]

And ever more details

[Triumph68]

some time ago I made the anchors... lost them... found one again.... considered it too small.. so re-did

painted and glued on the ship

[Triumph68]

found the ankers still too small...so I re-did again

bow is almost finished

first side smallboat

added one smallboat try as a rudder smallboat and added more details

[Triumph68]

as all small things close to the main guns have been placed I could finally fix them, all you see is fixed

Now I need to bring the other side to same level

[IJNfan]

Its amazing, especially that you can find the patience to redo a once finished model.

[Triumph68]

Txs IJNfan... but it wouldn't be a re-do if only small modifications
if you do a re-do... do it properly .. my view
and now with Catapults and the rafts been fixed... the rear looks way better

[Triumph68]

a few extra details on Catapult

had to make the missing doors to bring this side at same level as other side

[Triumph68]

and finally... the first rigging's

[Triumph68]

finnished 4 20mm aa and put her nbr on so bow again a bit close to finish.

some more also done on rear

main floater fixed on airplanes

[Triumph68]

some more details

and Curtis SC Seahawks almost done

[Triumph68]

Seahawks done and fixed

[Triumph68]

finally all 20 mm walls are made and put on... added also more rigging's and other details

[Triumph68]

some new stuff added

[Triumph68]

many small adding ... better a overview

and a big detail pic
