A afilter Mongoose Oct 13, 2010 #21 Looking great! Have you seen the deck decals for them? http://www.toshachminiatures.com/figurehead.htm A little pricey, but wow!

C Captain Chum Mongoose Jan 13, 2011 #22 I think the decks look fine. I have seen many different ways they have been painted.
S Spectrar Ghost Mongoose Jul 17, 2011 #23 Bit of an update: I've had my eyes on the Hasegawa 1/700 Waterline series for a bit, so when my local shop had one on the shelf, I snapped it up. USS Alabama (South Dakota-class BB) Still WIP, but I think I'm down to only 50 or so of the 72 20mm AA guns included.

B BFalcon Mongoose Jul 17, 2011 #24 Nice - far better detail than the 1/3000 I've got. How long is it? What's the beam?
S Spectrar Ghost Mongoose Jul 17, 2011 #25 Length ~290mm, beam 53mm, model height 63mm. Not good for VaS, but I'm looking forward to grabbing a few larger scale Japs for display eventually.

B BFalcon Mongoose Jul 17, 2011 #27 Thanks Ghost... appreciated. Yeah, that would make a nice display piece - put it on a decent seascape and it'll look fantastic - the detail is really nice too.
