Re: Help in Halifax
Nice work! I hope to do one of these in 1/72 scale someday.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Looks sharp!
Here’s a link to guy bundling the 1/72 kit of one of these ships. In case you need some reference information.

Jeff is a excellent builder and a extremely nice guy, also a local. I haven't talked to him since the last IPMS show but he's a bottomless pit of information when it comes to WW2.Stikpusher wrote:Looks sharp!

For some inspiration check out his IJN Seaplane Tender Akitsushima build its scratch built. It's impressive in photos but even more so in person.

Re: Help in Halifax
Thanks everyone! I really wanted to try and get the 1/72 version, but it was a little out of my price range. Also, pretty hard to find at all, even the 1/144 was difficult to find. Ebay led me to this 1/350 kit.

Re: Help in Halifax
I hear ya. I really want to get the 1/350 scale Aircraft Carrying Cruiser Mogami kit but even that scale is pricey. Did find one for discount price of $140 (regularly $166 and change).

I dropped it.
