Comments
kostas katseas shares with us some images of the Japanese battleship Kongō in 1/350th scale. The model is the (Fujimi) offering and also features the Flyhawk set. The Japanese battleship Kongō was launched during World War One and was finally sunk by the USS Sealion submarine in the Formosa Strait on the 21st November 1944.

Kostas,
Superb! I don't know whether to look at the water or the ship! You packed a lot of detail in there. How do you make the mattresses used as splinter shielding?

I agree with above: "I don't know whether to look at the water or the ship!" I couldn't turn to another web page when I saw this. Incredible work!

Kostas, you and Chris Flodberg are truly masters of taking detailed models and rendering the high seas! Adding a bit of heel to the Kongo is an especially nice touch!
