Lucky you didn’t scratch your nose really…..

Hope you escaped the CA without to much damage to fingers and table.

The build looks good so far. What are you painting with?

[Bri62]

What are you painting with?

Tamiya acrylics 2 main colours are imperial Japanese grey and hull red.
Brian

[Ian M]

Remember there are 3 - 4 different ones depending on the shipyard. Be sure to get the grey for the Kure shipyard.

Be sure to get the grey for the Kure shipyard.

Some progress for you, managed to get the CA off my hand, soaked them in really hot water......more careful now. I'm glad the rails are down was quite testing :smiling3:



These discharges were more difficult than I thought especially the smaller they got.


Look what arrived this morning :smiling3:



Might do a bit this afternoon.
Brian

[Ian M]

Coming along nicely (and quickly)!

Any chance of a closer look at the book? As in inside.

[Mark1]

Looks like your making good progress :thumb2:
