Finally got around to doing this "classic" again-  at least as right as I could do it...sorry about pics-  had to revert to an older camera.

A very enjoyable winter build...

Very nice, what "Measure" is she painted in?  What colors did you use?

Thats a really nice model. What particularily jumps out to me are the quality of the secondary armament and the floatplane architecture. I'm not familiar with that kit at all but its impressive. What if any aftermarket parts did you add on?

I used the old -  not the newer better set-  from Gold Medal Models.

This is the end of the war Measure 22

Navy Blue 5-N band on hull

Haze Grey on all vertical surfaces above the 5-N band

Weather deck blue 20-B on all horizontal surfaces.

Paints were Testors Acrylic from their hard to find Marine line-  can be ordered from their website...

Stretched sprue for rigging.

thanks!
