Wow, that is a fantastic model. That should be very helpful in your rigging job.

I've got a source for a good digitally colored real photo of Isuzu. Take a look at this...



This blogger does colorization of IJN photos. He does some good work. Go to link here: ?????????????????

Hi Jim,

Just starting out in this form of modeling and I can only echo the positive comments of all the others. This has been an excellent tutorial on how these things go together and I will be watching with great interest as you progress.

eib -- Thanks for the Japanese website. I really like those colorized photos. They bring those old IJN ships to life -- as does Jim's great model. Don

You're welcome fellows. A guy in the Steelnavy.com forum turned me onto that site. I watch it every week as it updates regularly. That guy is gifted. These are great photographic creations.

Good for studying and model building as well.

Well, I finished the bridge tonight. I went and bought a variety of sizes of fly-tying thread and used some of that for the signal flag lines. I figured it would be easier to put those on before the bridge was mounted.

Now, on to the mizzen-mast, or is it the main-mast? I'm not sure...

Hi Jim,

The level of detail that you are putting into the Isuzu is amazing as well as inspirational. That bridge looks right on, can't wait to see how she progresses, I am sure it will be most excellent.
