Very beautiful work. You get a sense of the size and weight of the ship with the bow plowing into the water like that. Thank you for sharing.

Lostas, your models are always and inspiration. Excellent work! I've always liked the way Yamato looked, except for that weird saddle the front two turrets rise up from - almost like they were too heavy and warped the deck!

Very nice Kostas. A nice crisp representation. I have to say though, that your recent aircraft carrier was a real bar-setter. Truly great stuff all-round!
