I just ran into your Arizona in the "Showcase" section on the Digital Navy website.
Glad to see those great images of her there where she belongs. A fitting place for a fine project.

Thanks Michael.

I was very flattered by what Roman had to say about the project. I don't think he ever contemplated someone taking his design up to 1/100 scale, as he seemed a bit surprised about how well it came out.

How did you like the R/C Lilla Weneda in the photo section? I thought that was pretty neat.

Yes the Lilla Weneda was quite a piece of work. Also, a modeler from Japan did quite a job on "Ambrose". It is not a complex project, but he did a flawless rendition.

How did upscale and reprint this kit? Did you reprint it yourself or did you take it somewhere? What kind of cardstock did you use? Awesome build!!

tko...

I had a commercial printing co. print the parts out at 250% magnification. Wasn't cheap. Got many quotes. $12 per sheet was the cheapest I could work out.

Laminated major members like formers to 2 mm frame matting material purchased from hobby lobby. Used 110 pound cardstock for most everything else.

Many thanks for your praise tko!
