After some time, my shipyards have launched another ship. This one is the Trumpeter 1/700 scale Italian RN Vittorio Venetto battleship:

My apologies for the blue tint here. Apparently the background helped blue this out.

This is is just in time for my club's theme for this month: Axis warships of WWII.

Thank you for looking in, comments are welcome.
 
Looks like a nice clean job,I like it,do you normally build your ships OOB with no rigging.
I ask because I build my ships basic also,I have used brass guns, and once tried a wood deck,but railings and rigging are beyond me.Nice to see I'm not the only one.
 
Thank you Tony! Yes, I do always build my ships sans rigging, particularly the 1/700 scale warships. All my efforts in the past have met with bent or broken masts, especially in this scale. I have never used brass guns or wooden decks either, they cost too much for me. I have done photo-etch railing and the occasional radar dish before though. I do love how they make a ship look, but I don't go out and get extras; I'll only add them if they are included in the box.
