I've built a few of these tiny IBG models: £15 which includes a lot of PE parts and nice box top artwork. I completed this I-class destroyer inside of two days, although with a bit more time I might have filled some of the gaps and sourced some thinner-gauge metal splinter shields for the 4.7 inch guns. I've sprayed it with four variations of grey although the dark blue grey stripe looks a bit dark: I should have toned it down a bit. I particularly like IBG's fold-your-own PE 20mm AA guns and the tiny 3-piece DF aerial in front of the bridge.
