Beautiful work as always. You really bring those battlewagons to life!

Great to see your fleet of dreadnaughts again.
I particularly like the work on Fuso.

Ise funnel area is completed (outside of small details). Next up Hiei. This structure was comparitively easy to build with respect to the two previous kits.

Hello Paper Fan,
Always great work here.
It is fun to get a look at three of your ships from different angles.

Hiei is now assembled to the same level as Kongo. It's been fun building these as a group. The build quality is no where near that of Hiob's, I simply don't have that level of skill.

The length of all the major assemblies have actually fit just fine, sorry Hiob, but I didn't have to make any adjustments front to back. I did however have to elevate "C" turret 1.5mm to clear the aft funnel deck house.

I added some comparison pictures with the Kongo. Of course Hiei was lost early in the war and she is 2.5 years earlier as a representation. The GPM kit is superior to Angraf in the printing quality but is otherwise no better or worse from an assembly perspective.
