1/700 USS Comte de Grasse DD-974 (Skywave)
This is the 1/700 kit from Skywave. The kit came as the USS Merril, but I used the decals for the USS Comte de Grasse. The photoetch is from Flagship Models and I highly recommend this set to anyone doing one of these kits. The water is made from acrylic gel medium and painted with humbrol metallic blue. The RHIB's that are on the port side and in the water on the starboard quarter were obtained through JAG, I'm simply got in contact with Tom to aquire them, they are little gems.
