Uss arizona

[philf104]

Hello from PHIL!
Here is my model of the DAY OF INFAMY battleship USS ARIZONA
The model is in 1/250th scale and his smaller than my BISMARCK model.
Please note the KING FISHER aircraft ,They are so small because of their size it took over 6 hrs to build each one!
Also note that the gun turrets move because each turret has 25 parts just to make them rotate.In total the guns have 56 parts each.
Total parts for the ship came to 610.
Also from Dec.7th I have the USS California that intend to build in the future.
I have 3 aircraft carriers and one the Japanese AKAGI that also took part in the raid on DEC 7th.It will take me months to build all the VALS and Zeros.
The other aircraft carriers I have are the USS Yorktown,USS Lexington and USS Saratoga.
Please enjoy the ARIZONA photos!

Phil,

These models are terrific. A testament to your patience and skill. Are these build from some sort of model/template? Or from scratch?
