IJN HIei

[Atyagatya]

Welcome everyone!
Ever since I joined this community, I have been fascinated by the work and creativity of the designers. I was particularly impressed by Lou Coatney's designs. I appreciated his 1:1200 scale models as a real challenge. Let's see if my knife breaks into it, as they say here in Hungary. The first of the downloads I started building the plans for IJN Hiei and IJN Kirishima.458 / 5

During construction, I felt that there was more to these designs. At least enough to reach the level of a plastic model. It didn't turn out really perfect, since my first attempts like this, I didn't even have usable plans, I only worked based on photos. First pieces, they will be as they are. The first picture is IJN Kirishima half finished. The rest are IJN Hiei so you can see why I wanted to convert it. Well, that's how IJN Hiei became. I like it that way, but I can already see that the tower needs to be rebuilt, but based on appropriate plans. Because it became ad hoc. Receive it with love and understanding!
Big Thanks to Lou Coatney for the designs! I hope I don't offend you by thinking about it again. I can't plan :-)
