Well. Here goes. Entering the fray with a WIP, from the get-go.

Concurrently building a set of slipways for my 1/700 DD builds; and a 1/700 IJN Harusame. Throwing in practice on converting images to b/w as were most WWII images. Fhantom Flotilla is my build theme. WWII all nations 1/700 DD and all sunk in action or as a result of action. Will build a sunk in action CL and/or MA as flotilla flag as well.



[Edit 2/13/2014 - update image of slipway. Phase 1, initial build, complete.]

With slipway construction Phase 1 complete (see edit above), work resumes on the 1/700 IJN DD Harusame.



B/W image depicting work on the ways, somewhere in the South Pacific, WWII:



Lots yet to do - on both the DD and the ways. Like the country song wails, it's a WIP. Getting there.
