Damn good work, Ron!
It's the little things that, when completed, will give her the realism that will make her even more outstanding than she is now, and she's pretty outstanding even at this stage.
From what you say and have shown, this is an outstanding model! It never ceases to amaze me how much research and work must go into a model on this level of design craftsmanship, I can't even imagine the time and effort it takes to design something this awesome, and yet they are so relatively inexpensive! How does he do it?? Roman is for sure one of the few elite designers we are lucky to have around producing such superb kits!
I wonder what projects he has on the drawing board and if any of them include a modern warship? :?
A Spruance class ship would be great, or what say he raises the stakes and creates one of the Missouri class battleships...I know, I'm sounding like a old record, but maybe he's listening?
Oh, and great photos, Rob!!
