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

Some work:

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.

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.

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.

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).

It's really looking nice!!

I dropped it.
RIP The Sackville. Mast is gone, perhaps it will be okay.
