Well at last I can put it on the shelf....a week and a half later than projected. All I need is assembly of the spotter aircraft and maybe those big side of the ship ladders. It looks great...no where near as perfect as Dades...I had a lot of difficulty with that hair thin railing. Going to bang out a 35th rail car and tank to add to my BR-52 set just to cleanse pallet before attacking another ship. This time though it will be one of the Trumpeter BB's either the Hood or the Bama. Mogami showed up today, Myoko and Shokaku on pre-order. I think I must be losing my mind. OH pictures...just look at Dades his is much better, but man what a gorgeous kit when done.
