Good question!When will be "ready to show" ,I'll try to sell it for the KIT Price.

Thats about 22 pounds! Nice build. I'm jealous- I dont have a place to show one of those after building! lol

 

[vicnic]

Yes,the space is a problem...and the wife opinion too
My house looks likes a museum(dioramas,figuras,ships...)
...and wife comments like...Another one!!!!

That is truly an amazing build. Now seeing this gets me really fired up to do RoG's 1/72 for the shipbuilding campaign. Again, fantastic work.
