That looks great. I have one of your USN destroyers printed and ready to build.

Thanks,
Brent

I uploaded IJN Shigure (1944) and Yuudachi (1941). I'm working on the beta of Shiratsuyu (1942) and will upload it when finished. I fudged a bit. I put the ships' names and division numbers on the hull sides as they were before WW2. This is not historically accurate, but I think they're cool that way. The Japanese destroyers did not use camouflage, so there is not much "color" in the models. I made a separate sheet with hull sides for the other ships of the class, and funnels with all 4 division markings.

A big thank you for sharing these! They are small but very well designed, and I think they can also be shrunk to go with the popular 1:700 waterline series. Definitely on my to-build list.

Although very not to the waterline spirit, would you happen to mind if I design a hull bottom to go with your models?

Lex,
I do not mind at all if you design a hull bottom for any of my models. Please upload it when finished.

I read his book - really interesting and this would be a pretty sweet model.

Thank you very much for the models!
As I mentioned the previous fit really nice in a ledger.
I am sure these will too.
