I occurred to account the chain as large as when it was put. I thank to the commentaries on the errors so that of them I learn much more that of the good commentaries.

Thanks Ski and a greeting.

PD: Greater they have been left the stairs.

Progresses

These are the progresses of the model. The details in wire have been great, but it is the best thing than I have been able to do.

Un saludo

Hello everybody, not long ago that work in this model, gives me a lot of punishment on the shelf to see him, I decided to ride across the stern, I left a lot by assembling parts and this is the aspect that it has today.

Un saludo

Beautiful, however if I may, it appears the anchor chain is a bit over scale. Otherwise I find your work very nice indeed.

 

[chapuzas100]

True, the chain is very large, the manufacture and I was not very good.

Hello everybody, all things come to an end, my model of the USS Iowa has also come to an end.

In these photos you can see the model completely finished



Details stern to bow



and now bow to stern



and now "artistic" photography



As a final assessment I would say that the model despite being very old fits very well, the problems I have had to interpret diagrams assembly but I found a forum in German, the assembly of the Misouri of the same period and from the same manufacturer and with These images got finish mine.

A greeting

Good grief! That's an impressive build. Excellent job, Chapuzas. Obviously a labour of love.

 

[Teamski]

No doubt!! A piece of art all the way down to the scratch built railings! Well done mate!
