Hi All, Not posted for a little while, but here is one of my recent builds. This is a superb kit, rammed with detail, but goes together exceptionally well. Its up there with the Tamiya warbirds in the same scale, but costs half the price! [...]

USS Indianapolis (Premium Edition) UPDATED

by Rob Pollock on June 2, 2015 · in Ships · 42 ≡

UPDATE Earlier this month, I posted this article about the USS Indianapolis. I noted that the mid-line blue on the hull was, in retrospect, the wrong colour. It made the ship look more like a fairground attraction than a USN vessel, and [...]
