IJN Agano

I think I finally found a Japanese cruiser that has not been done in card. Something to play with when I feel like kicking Enterprise out of the window. She is a light 6" gun cruiser/Flotilla leader carries 2 float planes but did not get the ugly hanger treatment.

Not familiar with Agano, have to look her up. Looks interesting.

I'll be following this one for sure.

Thanks for the comments sorry I seem unable to keep up these days

Strange ship it has all sorts of semi-streamlined shelters etc.

I have been trawling the net to find odd bits of information on Agano so she has changed a bit since the last picture. The hardest thing to find was the position of the torpedo reload storage.

I usually get the itch to start something else when I get to the last few bits on a big model like Enterprise and Richelieu and both of them are in that state. I need a smaller model for a couple of weeks.

Agano seems to be unrolling without too much hassle at the moment which is also a big help. I am still not satisfied with the 3 barrel AA and the 20mm AA does need a rework.

Darn you're good. This is a welcome addition to the lesser modeled in card fleet. I get tired of the same old Bismarck/ Yamato re-design re-released, done and overdone sameness. Be following along with eagerness!

Hi Barry,

Oh yeah, another IJN Cruiser that has yet to be done in card model form, I am definitely up for this one. I have been tinkering at the parts and pieces for the Nagatsuki getting them all lined up and detailed a bit more as well as checking out other Mutsuki Class builds for information. This is a welcome bit of news.

Thank you all for dropping by yet again like Cmdrted I like to do something different. The only battleship I would really like to build is HMS Vanguard but first I would have to get of a lot of other big ones. Got to do that someday soon. Anybody any ideas what to do with them.
