The Imperial Japanese Navy's Battleship Yamato



Ah, what ship model collection is complete without the Yamato? This model was built from the Tamiya 1/350th scale kit. The kit came motorized, but I added a two channel radio. I also used the to-scale rudders and added a bell crank so I could steer them both. I’m in the process of detailing her with Gold Medal Models brass etch set.
