1:350 IJN YAMATO (work in progress)
Again, built OOB with some additional PE railings, I hated doing these, so doubtful i’ll add them to future builds!
Lower hull is “Red Oxide” primer, upper hull and super structure is Grey primer (as i did to all my models in the past, seems to work well.) the rest is brush painted.
Great kit from Academy, with plenty of scope for “super-detailing”
Hope you enjoy

I know whatcha mean about those fiddly PE parts….what few ships I’ve done didn’t have ’em either.

Great Work! I applaud your gumption in tackling this – you get a lot of model building (and hair pulling and teeth gnashing in my case) for your money with a kit like that.
