Currently I am building the USS Buchanan as she appeared in 1942 that was present at a number of significant naval engagements in the Pacific and carried Admirals Nimitz and Halsey near the end of the World War II and carried General MacAuthur to the USS Missouri for the unconditional surrender of Japan.
At present I am about 2/3 of the way completed. All that is left is to finish the main mast, life rafts, a 1.1" quad anti aircraft gun, safety railing, and finish decals and weathering. Once I finish I plan on setting the half hull ship on a clay textured board to simulate the ship being underway as well as fabricate a way to show the smoke from the smoke stacks.
