    Hey Powder Monkey, did those secondary turrets, rangefinders, and AA guns come from California? They look awfully familiar...

    Looking forward to seeing it at the spring slam in 10 days. It looks good. Check the systems one more time and get some gun rubber or one bb dent and it's over. The sodak fleet is coming together very nicely.

    NP - I'll just ask the "secret source" himself, next time I see him.

    BTW, in that Star-Destroyer-Gray paint scheme, your SoDak looks positively imperial. Perfect for crushing the reb... I mean Axis... in one swift stroke ;)

    First of all.... Noice work! Very Noice.!! I am ordering a Iowa soon and I want to know where or how did you make the Radar dish atop the superstructure? I like the rubber boots on the Turret faces.

    Thanks for the info. It kind of reminds me of the Millineium Falcon's Radar Dish.

    That's a great photo, evil J. Kudos to the camera guy. I usually miss those shots cause I'm battling.

    These are the kind of shots that got me interested in the hobby. I wish I could see more like this. Anymore "Sandwich" shots to post by anybody?
