Thanks guys for the likes and comments. I want to get to where I can start on the diorama part. It should get pretty interesting then.

Thanks Uwe, I meant to post something since yesterday marks the 78th anniversary of the sinking of USS Arizona. I'm glad you have my back!

I needed to make bollards for the Arizona. I made a few from scratch and toyed with the idea of casting duplicates, but I decided to just make them assembly line style. Here is my first attempt at making a prototype.



Now I just got to get out the glue and start gluin'

 

[SigEp Ziggy]

Starting to come together!

Nice work! Quite amazing the amount of distortion the hull suffered in the explosion.

Thanks Ted, I hope to finish the aft deck this weekend or very soon.

Working on the base with little spare time I have.
