Well, I decided to give this fella a thread of his own.. You know when you start a project, you get that feeling of "this is gonna be a fun build?"... Well thats how I feel about this guy...
Well, I actually get that feeling with most my builds, but sometimes, like my refit, I put so much time into it. I burn out a little, and need something to clear the mind for a while..
But with this guy, the more I study it, the more I want to get into it, and do a job on it! So far, I have the main body parts, hull and deck together, and I am in the process of filling the gaps for the wings to come out.. I decided to build my Yamato with no wings and normal hull...
So here is a picture trail of where I am at!
First pic, is for those of you that havnt seen this kit before. Its the 1/500 verson of the Yamato from here in Japan..
Getting started...
She's together, lets get her smooth...
One side done!
Now for the gaps for the wings.. Puttied, and waiting to set
More putty and sanding needed....
As you can see the seam undernieth still needs to be done, and all the panels will be re-scribed by hand... I have really fallen in love with this ship, so I guess I have alot of work cut out for me!
For those of you, who are probably getting sick of me posting everything I do.. My appologies.. I just enjoy sharing my builds with everyone.. Opinions, critisisms always helpfull!
