Hi All
Does anyone here know of the old HG Watkins model of the USS Houston? I 'd love to find one because I'v been thinking of building a model of the cruiser in the Cavite blue/lt grey color scheme that it fought in early in 1942. I'm looking into plans from the University of Houston of the ship and thought that either the Pensacola hull or the Portland that were made by Modelcard and Flymodel might help me get started.
Then tonite I found out that HG Watkins had made a model of the Houston some time ago.
Heres 2 pics of the ship that I've found to show it coloration in 1941-2.
