1/700 USS Arizona "Frankenzona" (DML Kitbash)
This is a kitbash of the 1/700th scale Dragon Arizona kit, modified as per a Navsource concept drawing of one prewar modernisation proposal for the Arizona. It's somewhat of a compromise between the Nevada and the Pennsylvania real-life 1943 refits.
In a "what-if" scenario where the Arizona was not a total loss, if she could have been salvaged and rebuilt this is what she might have looked like in 1944 after rebuilding and some combat.
A big thank you to Gerry Radice for access to his parts box and for not laughing too hard.
