Starting off the 2015/16 modeling year is a returning of size to the JSC Shimakaze. Years ago I enlarged her to 1/250 scale because of lack of detail of the basic 1/400 scale ships. The ever decreasing space available had me return to smaller scales. 1/33 aircraft are now being built in 1/50. tanks are staying at 1/72 or 1/76 depending... Anyhows after much admiring our friend Marco's work, it was time to get off the sidelines and return to modeling. The Basic JSC kit is one of the newer ones by that company and appears to be CAD. even so I had to mess with it, add some details and recolor some things. The Shimakaze was a one off experiment. She had most of the major improvements of the newer IJN destroyers and some sort of "turbo drive" engine that propelled this thing past 40 knots. The war saw some improvements basically to equipment , radar and more aa armament. This version is a later war version...
