I was marvelling over it the other day. Honestly I didn't like his display box, it's too restricted and doesn't allow proper sight lines. The model itself is a masterpiece.

Thanks, John.

A ship model building friend sent me this link a couple of days ago. I sent him links to the four (known to me) Zuiho builds in our Forum.

That 1/100 model is extraordinary.

You are welcome Don,
Just looked up the four ZUIHO builds on this forum too. But I think the most precise ZUIHO model will be Jakub's one (Kubeksus), he did and is doing a very thorough research on the ship. I am awaiting his results before starting to build her myself. I downloaded all four builds though for reference !!

John.

John - I fully concur with your assessment of Jakub's Zuiho. A friend who is a retired Smithsonian model builder and historical research (and a member of this Forum) said to me in an email message just this morning, "Jakub pushes the envelope in accuracy . . . That sort of research is awe inspiring," and I can only agree.

You are no slouch in research and craftsmanship yourself, my friend.

Don

Thanks Don, but researching my projects is another hobby of mine from which already some people benefited !!
