1/200 USS San Francisco (CA-38)

My next project is a 3ft long USS San Francisco. I picked a beat up copy of this up from a used bookstore a number of years ago. I figure this build will take a while, so I am posting in parts. I'm a week in so far and have the hull done.

Here is a link to the gallery.

I am also doing my new fangled time lapse treatment to it as well. I have the first two parts (skeleton and hull skinning).

There are definitely some fidly bits to this. I ended up with a huge gap at the stern where the upper and lower skins should have met. I made a few slices so that the areas would wrap together.



So far it looks good from 1.5ft away, but needs some touchup for 1.5inches away.

I scratch built the cylinders that hold the props and scratched the centers of the props. For the super squinty parts I am going to fabri-cobble a bunch of those types of things from scratch to make life easier.
