Vlad, Gordon and Dan thank you! I'm already mulling over my next project. Got some models for my Bday, now I'm looking at either Maryland BB46, Arizona BB39, Bogue CVE9, North Carolina BB55, or Yorktown CV10... all in 1/700. :scratch:

Kyle,

I'd hold off on Maryland and get the BRM cage masts. They make the build look MUCH better. The DML Zona needs a little reworking on the forward superstructure and has some fit issues. If I were to vote, I'd go with the NorCal or Bogue, with the Bogue being a favorite. It's a cool little kit.

Great job on the Tuscaloosa Kyle! :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: She came out great! :cool_2:

I'm with Chris on the Bogue. It would be something different, and very rarely modeled on this section! :thumbs_up_1:

Jim, Chris, Bob thank you gentlemen! I concur, I've been thinking either NoCal or CVE. We'll see...

Mods, you can shift this to the completed section at your convenience as well.
