The Duke's Shipyards Launch Three More Ships

[Duke Maddog]

Here are the latest ships to come off the slipways at my shipyards.

To start, I finished up the USS Bootes AK-99 Liberty ship. This is the 1/700 scale Pit Road kit:

Next is the third Japanese subject being delivered to my Japanese Forces. this is the 1/700 scale Pit Road kit of the Japanese Oiler Erimo. I built her because she was eavesdropping on US Navy communications but the US Pacific Fleet during exercises a few weeks before Pearl Harbor. Sneaky little devil here:

Finally, both of these ships are being escorted by my latest British destroyer the HMS Daring on their shakedown cruises. This is the 1/700 scale Dragon kit of one of Britain's newest ships:

Okay, that's all I have for now. Thanks all for looking in, comments are welcome.

Would love to add a liberty ship or two to my fleet one of these days.

Thanks Rhino! Now I just have to build more than I buy so I can clear some space!
