Comein on well bri its really good to see Bob an you building these battle wagons as i love both builds an i would love to scratch build one of these in 1/72 scale for R.C but oh the size it would need a crane to lift it an my model room is not big enought but what models they would be as see a freind mick with his 1/96 SCALE YAMATO an that was a monster but can only dream on lol

I enjoy doing all the build but the PE is only doable in short measures

Well my Yamato came alongside today but it will be a while before I start mine. I will carry on enjoying your build.

[Jim R]

Really taking shape now. I agree, pe takes a steady hand, patience and so better tackled in small doses.

[papa 695]

Moving along nicely Brian.

have you glued the rear deck down or is it just dry fitted. I see that you have turned the hanger deck doors around. You had them opening out in the earlier photos, but in the last few they open in. The Guide rail on deck would suggest that outward is correct. Hope I am not to late.

WELL Ian before i die thats how soon lol

Ian Actually there suppose to be closed I did that on purpose as I want to put one of the planes in that bay and doing it like that gave me more room, I can easily remove the rails there only plastic (never one to follow rules :smiling3: )

If you look closely there is no room for open doors facing out
