Before I bought a metal model of the Japanese aircraft carrier IJNS Kaga online, I had already ordered a 3D printed resin model. It – and a model of the IJNS Akagi – were recently delivered.
IJNS Kaga
(38,200 tons; 28 knots; 10 x 7.9-inch guns; 16 x 5-inch AA guns; 22 x 25mm AA guns; 90 aircraft)
IJNS Akagi
(41,300 tons; 31.5 knots; 6 x 7.9-inch guns; 16 x 5-inch AA guns; 28 x 25mm AA guns; 91 aircraft)
I have yet to paint these models, but hope to do so soon.

Building up a nice little fleet there.
ReplyDeleteRob Young,
DeleteI have a few more destroyers on order, and when they arrive, I’ll have a sizeable fleet of ship that I can use for wargaming.
All the best,
Bob
BOB,
ReplyDeleteVery detailed models- excellent. Nearing time to build up an American Fleet? 1/1200th is the best scale for wargames. Cheers. KEV.
Kev Robertson (Kev),
DeleteThat will be my next step; creating an American fleet to fight against.
I agree about 1/1200th-scale being the best scale for naval wargaming. Large enough to see the detail and to pick up easily … and small enough to fit on a reasonably-sized tabletop.
All the best,
Bob
