USS Texas BB-35
by Kym Knight
 1/350 USS Texas BB-35 (Viking Models)
The ship:
BB35 USS Texas
Time period :
November 1944. Just overhauled and leaving Casco Bay in the company of USS Missouri and USS Arkansas, heading for the Pacific (according to the Warship Pictorial #4)
Paint Scheme:
Measure 31a-8b using WEM Colourcoats.

Parts added:

The kit went together quite good and the photo-etch sheet was Flagship's Texas/New York set and in my opinion very nicely done. Detail on the deck is well done and the moulded resin parts had negligible overpour. Instructions were very basic, but I'm starting to get use to that. I would like to thank Bill from Taskforce Hobbies who sold it to me cheaply and got it to me in Australia lightning fast and to Steve Wiper's #4 Warship Pictorial on the USS Texas with which made construction to the time period, easy.
