Zigomar Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 This is awesome and will certainly inspire me for my Kaga built! Thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob 1 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) That is amazing, a complex build and really nicely finished, looks very good. It really captures the Japanese carrier look, and is inspiring to any model ship builder. Edited November 16, 2019 by Rob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Spence Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Stunning! the weathering around the water line is 👌 Where did you get the metal mounts for the base if you don't mind me asking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikemc Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 Metal pedestals are from pontos models. Bought in local hobby shop. Sorry for late replay, but I'm offshore, and connection to internet is sometimes poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) Hello Mike, Incredible model. Masters piece of art. The model (excellent photography) shows its complexity very clear. Meaning the structure of the flight deck, in comparison to US carriers. I have to admit, that his model shows me for the first time the whole design in a very celar matter. Regards, Orion / The Netherlands. Edited December 13, 2019 by Orion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigglesof266 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 I have an above average attention span, but my sincere admiration goes out to anyone who can last the distance on this one, particularly including full etch treatment. Envious in the most flattering sense. Just a beautiful model worthy of praise to both Hasegawa and the master model builder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robertone139 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 "Laughing hysterically, then crying, then laughing..." How in the world did you achieve that lower hull weathering!? That's a compliment btw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case I used H47 for bottom of hull. Main colour for hull is xf-75. To paint a brown deck h37 has been used. Cheers Thx for all kind comments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
