And three new nameplates, one for each of the three types of Fubuki class destroyers of the Imperial Japanese Navy.

The Hibiki nameplate can complement either the WWII-era destroyer or modern ocean surveillance vessel. The Ushio nameplate can complement the new Fine Molds 1/350 scale Ushio kit. Fubuki, a Midway veteran, was destroyed at Guadalcanal by US cruiser and destroyer gunfire. Ushio and Hibiki survived WWII, the only two ships of the 24-ship class to do so. Ushio, a veteran of Coral Sea, Midway, and Leyte Gulf, helped destroy Porpoise class submarine USS Perch SS-176, and was scrapped in 1948. Hibiki survived being torpedoed by Gato class submarine USS Hake SS-256, and went on to serve the Soviet Union, sunk in the 1970s for target practice near Vladivostok, and now a popular dive location.

Newly obtained references from research conducted at the National Archives prior to Covid-19 have permitted improvements to our 1/350 scale and 1/426 scale USS Arizona BB-39 superstructures for 1941 and 1936. We are happy to announce the 1941 superstructure is complete and the 1936 superstructure will be within the week. These are entirely new designs, based on scans of shipyard blueprints.

One of the most common comments from customers was that the Banner/Mini Hobby model kits' forward tripod was very difficult to align properly so that the fighting top was straight and level. Our original 3D superstructures, designed 6 years ago, did little to help. So the new design helps solve that problem by including the entire tripod and associated platforms, already aligned. New features include rooftop periscopes, peloruses, binnacle, drum-shaped RDF antenna cover, improved deck support structure, and much more accurate doors of 3 different sizes (48" x 26" - AA station, 56" x 26" - flag bridge weather enclosure, and 66" x 26" - all the rest, all "pressed panel"-type, all with dogs and hinge detail).

The new parts breakdown is such that the break between parts is at the foot of the bulkheads rather than at the overhead so deck painting is made much easier. Paint the parts before assembly and you'll have a clean, sharp demarcation where bulkheads meet decks.

Below are some photos of the new 1941 design in 1/350 scale. The 1/426 scale model is identical, just smaller.

As with the improved 1941 model shown in the post above, the 1931-1940 USS Arizona BB-39 superstructure model is also improved. Below are some renderings of the 1/350 scale 1936 model at about 90% complete. Photos of the actual model will be posted after test prints have been made later this week. The renderings show a 1941 fighting top as a placeholder. The 1931-1940 fighting top, available separately, does not have a radar platform.

Any chance of seeing lifeboats for Titanic, Olympic, etc? I need some 1/700 scale 30 foot BOT lifeboats for a scratchbuild project, and Titanic boats would be perfect.

Thinking they would be great to RMS Olympic conversions, etc. as well since the boat count was increased after the big disaster.

Thanks

Hi Scott,

I regret to say that there are no plans for Titanic/Olympic/Britannic lifeboats.

Thanks and kind regards!

As with the improved 1941 model shown in the post above, the 1936 USS Arizona BB-39 superstructure model is also improved. Below are some renderings of the 1/350 scale 1936 model at about 90% complete. Photos of the actual model will be posted after test prints have been made later this week. The renderings show a 1941 fighting top as a placeholder. The 1936 fighting top, available separately, does not have a radar platform.

Your earlier version was gorgeous. My Arizona project has stalled for a few years, so I am eager to upgrade to the new version. Keep up the good work, it just keeps getting better.

Happy to announce the updated 1931-1940 USS Arizona BB-39 superstructure is ready in 1/350 and 1/426 scales.

Below are some photos of the 1/350 scale model.

This model kit superstructure is intended as a more accurate and much better detailed option for modelers building a 1/350 scale USS Arizona BB-39 model kit as the ship appeared throughout the 1930s, after her major 1929-1931 reconstruction at Norfolk, Virginia, until further modifications were made in late 1940-January 1941 at Puget Sound Navy Yard.

The superstructure was in this configuration during the March, 1934 filming of "Here Comes the Navy" starring James Cagney, Pat O'Brien and Gloria Stuart.

Happy to announce sets of 1/350 scale 203 mm/53 cal. (8"/53 cal.) turrets are now available for the Italian Regia Marina Zara class heavy cruisers RN Zara, RN Pola, RN Fiume and RN Gorizia as well as the unique heavy cruiser RN Bolzano.
Attachment:
RN Zara.jpg
RN Zara.jpg [ 234.88 KiB | Viewed 3028 times ]

Features:
- Turrets 2 and 3 include accurate rooftop rangefinders.
- Armored rangefinder hoods include accurate bolthead detail and closed shutters with slide detail.
- Circular turret bases feature raised rivet detail.
- Separate 203 mm/53 cal. "Ansaldo" cannon barrels are fixed to a trunnion properly located within the gunhouse providing a correct center of rotation. Plastic kits often have the center of rotation much too far to the rear of the gunhouse limiting barrel elevation.
- The modeler can set the cannon barrels to any realistic elevation from -5 degrees to +45 degrees, just like the real weapons.
- Accurate cannon barrel spacing.
- Accurate cannon barrel length with accurate muzzle detail.
- Barrel ports feature subtle, raised blastbag/bloomer attachment rings.
- Glacis (frontal armor plate) viewfinder ports include raised rain-deflecting rigols ("eyebrows"), curved for Pola, angular for Zara.
- Rooftop treadplates and bolts.

And best of all:
- Zara's turret 4 features the ship's motto "TENACEMENTE" ("Tenaciously") emblazoned in readable raised lettering on the sides.
- Pola's turret 3 features the ship's motto "ARDISCO AD OGNI IMPRESA" ("I dare to every undertaking", or "Courage in every undertaking") in readable raised lettering on the sides.
- Fiume's turret 3 features the ship's motto "INDEFICIENTER" ("Unfailingly") in readable raised lettering on the sides.
