Hello Anthony,
This represents the workhorse of the US.Navy very well.
The clean lines show power and speed. I still prefer this to the new LCS Zumwalt. Whats up next?
Regards,Dirk/The Netherlands.

Thanks ..Well Dirk, I reconcile the zumwalt is very ugly …. at this moment I am finishing the ijn Yahagi 1/350, will soon show, regards.

This is a fantastic build! As are all the others by the way, just too many to comment on all individually!
The camo on this is really eye catching, and very well executed.
