After completing USS Texas last week I decided it was time to complete the IJN Hiryu. As I feared the deck work was a bit more than my talents were up to, but still turned out OK for a gaming model.

Very nice, and one I've been considering picking up myself, so great to see the actual printed model, thanks. PS – Aksakal – Axis & Allies War At Sea. The scale also fits with the new Mongoose range. |

Thanks! Not up to par with the results I had with USS Texas, but that is on me not the model. Yes, this one is for WaS, but I also use my 1/1800 scale fleets for all my WWII tabletop gaming. In addition many of the shapeways designers offer them in multiple scales. |

Ok Im 3 YEARs too late.
Perhaps thats why none of the photos show or even open on the blog. Bummer really hoped to see them. |

Actually that just happened in the last month. Had to clean up my photo bucket account and accidentally broke many links. In the coming weeks I will go back and clean up all my blog posts so they work. |
