hasegawa 1/700 zuiho

It appears doesn't matter what I do, the photo is not quite the colour of the real thing..

Also realised forgot boat straps...when I thought it's complete..

PS: The real thing never carried Val or Suisei, nor do I think the radar/search light would've been on deck the same time as aircrafts..Those aircrafts are just spares lying around...

PSS: I have no answer as to what is that white zigzag line. I guess it's a white zigzag line.

Wow!  Forget about lighting problems with your photography, it's still a great model!  Nicely done.

Was it a spotting mark of some kind, for aircraft taxiing on the flight deck?

Just another cool IJN carrier build. Correct color or not, I like it a lot. It gives character.

I hope you build every carrier in the fleet! What's next?
