Thanks everyone! I’d love to share the Kongō progress here, but while she was around during the First World War, I don’t think her 1944 fit would really gel around here. She is progressing though. I need to update the website with some more photos since this week I was able to finish her main armament.
I built Emden a few years ago now, and I’d like to build Dresden as she appeared at the end of her life, beat to hell, dirty with coal dust, a sad state indeed.
The next ship after Kongō will be the carrier HMS Vindictive, 1918 in her dazzle paint. I made approximately 1,000 photo etch parts for her too. I plan to depict the ship in dirty weather, moody and grey.
By the way, I’ll be at the IPMS Nationals in Texas US this year, with some of the models if anyone wants to see them in person. I was at the nationals in Omaha last year and I got to meet quite a few of you internet peoples in person. I’ll be hanging out at the ScaleColors booth.
