The Duke's Shipyards Launch Four Ships in April
Posted: Thu May 07, 2026 8:38 pm
This is May, but these were completed last month and so are being shown now.
First up are my two German Z-class destroyers whose construction had not been documented in the tours. First is the Tamiya 1/700 scale Z-37:
Next is the Tamiya 1/700 scale Z-39:
The next ships to launch are the Nichimo 1/500 scale Japanese battle ship IJN Mutsu:
Yes, I did forget to glue down the center section, that has been remedied...
The final ship to be launched is the Nichimo 1/500 scale Japanese carrier IJN Shokaku:
My apologies for the backdrop; I couldn't find a white background big enough for this large ship.
Thank you all for looking in, comments are welcome.
