camponubla Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) Then, here the next project (in parallel with the "eternal" Colombo Express), the USS Zumwalt, the new Destroyer Class of the US Navy. The kit is a "smart kit", and I bought a PE set specific for this kit. Edited April 24, 2015 by camponubla 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan P Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 It's still very big for a destroyer. Looks like a nice kit and detail set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickpadwick1801 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Very nice, even though the ship is an unusual design, I do still like it. I've been looking at this kit. Might have to acquire one. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graeme Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I've got this kit on the go at the moment, but not sure about those PE bits on the side of the superstructure...they must have been a pig for a brickie to lay on the real thing...! What colour grey did you? I was contemplating doing something a bit different - a disruptive or splinter camo job, a bit like a Visby corvette Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What colour grey did you? I was contemplating doing something a bit different - a disruptive or splinter camo job, a bit like a Visby corvette Graeme Yes, the PE along the superstructure requires alot of "sanding work" to create a flat surface. The grey color was Vallejo Air 71051 95% + VA 71054 5% (aprox) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
