Hi guys! I started this. It will be a slow project and I have big plans for it, but we'll see how it goes.

I decided to start with the engines. Not much to show, but it's a start.

Thanks for looking in!

I will be interested in how you enhance this one Uros. Looking forward to the journey.

I have also seen one of the USN versions built. It is an impressive sized model when finished.

I bought one of these recently, in USN markings. So I will be following your build with interest. But please don't get too fancy on me, I like my builds nice and simple.

Sorry, too late for that! Saws are out and I've already made some cuts.

Is there a site where I could see the finished model? I've been searching the internet, but found nothing.

There is no online build, only an article in ModelArt, the only local Aussie Modelling Magazine.

Here are the pictures I took of it the two times I have seen it at Model Competitions.

At our local competition here in Canberra

And at this years Model Expo in Melbourne

This build is moving forward again. Engines are almost finished. They need more cleanup and details.

Beautiful detail there Uros, I am assuming you added extra parts?

Hei, Uros, you're a war machine.
One build after another. And what a build!
Bye
