USS Indianapolis CA-35

[Calico Jack]

I have a clear workbench for 2025 and this will be the first build for the new year. The Academy kit is very clean and looks to be a great build. I will also be using the Pontos Models advanced photoetch set as well as the Eduard sets.

The Eduard sets seem to have the better hatches and doors, as well as being a backup in the all to familiar case of flying same parts into the carpet sea. I hope to include as much progress photos and updates as the project progresses.

This will be my return to a warship model since my last build about five years ago of the USS Mobile Bay modeled during a VERTREP in high seas. Wish me luck...
