Continuing the ships named for cities in Louisiana, here is progress on my USS Alexandria. The base is almost ready and I just need to paint the lower half of the hull red and screw brass.

Are you sure?!
Yep
is a Los Angeles class nuclear-powered attack submarine and the third vessel of the United States Navy to be named for both Alexandria, Virginia, and Alexandria, Louisiana.

Needing to get this one done for next Saturday’s club meeting. I must confess that I was terrified of airbrushing, not from using the airbrush, but from thinning the paint wrong. I bought some little bottles to mix the paint in and today was D-Day. It all worked out great.
Here is the red on the hull an a photo of the little bottles.

I’m calling this one done. Just in time for tomorrow’s club meeting. Feels nice to finish a model.
Nice! I do like the display. It seems you can even make it a wall mount for that beauty!

Turned out really nice Kenny! I like the way you mounted it, something really different from the usual run of the mill submarine mounting.
