IJN Mogami by Chuck B

This is my rendition of Trumpeter's 1/350 kit, which depicts the Japanese heavy cruiser Mogami after the refits that turned her from her original form into an aircraft-carrying cruiser. To build this model I added 823 scratch-built and aftermarket pieces to 502 parts from the kit. It took 1,011 hours to complete.

This is gorgeous work, Chuck.  I'd love to see you create a build log for your next build.  It would be really fun to see how you go about creating a work of art such as this.

What a good lookin’ model in all respects.
 

The aircraft finish is amazing, checkout the canopy frames.

 

The deck clutter is awesome.

 

Everything about the appearance is just right.

 

 Well done!

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
