1:1000 scale 1898 USS IOWA

Here is my latest 1:1000 scale 1898 warship - USS Iowa. This one presented a few challenges. It came with quite a few parts missing including all the secondary gun turrets. I had to scratch build them. While I was at it I decided to make a flying bridge with a shade over it like I have seen in photos of the ship.

1898 US and Spanish Warships

I have finished the water effects on the bases of the 1:1000 scale 1898 ships I have put together in the last couple of weeks. I have all the ships for the Battle of Santiago Bay. These are the ones that I have completed at the moment. Now all I have to do is finish the other ten or so ships I have. In the pictures are the battlecruiser USS Brooklyn, the older battleship USS Texas, the battleship USS Indiana, the Spanish cruiser SNS Infanta Maria Teresa and the Spanish torpedo boat destroyers SNS Pluton and SNS Furor.
