IJN Shinano

1/250 IJN CV Shinano in progress (highly modified Doyusha)

Originally I built the ship straight out of the Doyusha kit and soon I am dissatisfied with its look. Hence I used eight more months to rebuild it. Indeed I have almost scratch-built it all over again and the only things that I kept were the hull and the flight deck. This is also the first time I scratch-build a model ship. The planes are not shown here as I am still converting them. I hope this model reaches 70% accuracy (perhaps to me the most difficult job is to build something without an accurate source of information about this mysterious ship).
