hello all,
i found this looking for a Resin Civil War kit and thought i would share it with everone here at MSW
Bluejacket Shipcrafters Inc. has released a 1/192 USS Arleigh Burke DDG-51 Guild Missile Destroyer .it is a Multimedia kit with carved,laminated basswood hull,multiple sheets of etched brass,custom Britannia fittings,laser and resin parts.
all of this for $640.00.
so if you like your ships big this is one for you.from the photo's i have seen,it is a beautiful kit and will make a great model.
most of the products from Bluejacket kits are Museum Quality kits,and if done right your build can be equal with most Museum models on display.
cheers,
Bruce
PS there is a mention in the latest FineScale Modeler magazine about this ship under new kits.
