I have a similar idea of doing the same thing but for the carrier Kaga. I have the Kaga kit from Hasegawa and the Kate, Val and Zeke also from Hasegawa. I was going to call my display "The birds of Kaga" with the Kaga in the background with just the 3 planes on the flight deck and the 3 x 1/48 planes displayed in front of the Kaga. Some day <sighs>

Cheers

Looks like you took Rosy the Riveter out on this one. Is that correct? Very nice!

Looking at the photos I see your riveting work. That's a fabulous job! Where did you get the riveting guideline please?

Thanks.
