In this video tutorial you can see how I created a diorama of the explosion of USS ARIZONA during the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor.
I used the Revell model of USS ARIZONA at 1/426 scale
I painted the various parts with acrylic colors.
I created the sea with Styrofoam
The Diorama is illuminated by a battery operated LED strip.
I tried to approach this project with great respect for the people that were lost, as I explain at the end of the video.
May their sacrifice never be forgotten.
Thank you for watching and see you again soon.
All the best

Yeah the USS Arizona was a sad tragic story in world war 2 in pearl harbor on December 9th 1941 when Japan got the jump on us and destroyed most of the U.S. fleet with bombs torpedoes and much worse

[@colegensch787]

There were a lot of casualties there to it was a firey smokey and blood mess like hell was unleashed onto pearl harbor and just to think Japan was working with the Nazis for world domination. Pretty scary what evil can do and what devastation it leaves behind in it's wake. Pearl harbor never saw it coming and USS Arizona got the jump first before she could ever take action.

[@colegensch787]

I left a few ideas 💡 you could incorporate into your USS Missouri diorama to come the idea is on the comment in hms hood sinking Diorama your recent video I hope like the 💡 ideas I added to it with guns firing which what you want but also a I thought of it going at full speed. A hudge bow wave as it cuts through the water and give it a sharp turn to port with the starboard side listing slightly as she delivers a full broadside with her turrets. This will give your diorama more action Micheal.

[@Vickie-Bligh]

Michael, thank you for a most respectful and moving tribute to the men who died on the Arizona that day 82 years ago. I had the same feeling watching this as I have had each time standing on the Memorial in Pearl Harbor. The work is excellently done. Thank you again.

[@4THECRAFT]

Many thanks, Vickie. I tried to approach this project with great respect.

[@colegensch787]

The blowout wave from the armor piercing bomb that literally obliterated Arizona's bow and sunk her is the most incredible detail you made awesome work my friend 👍😁😄

[@4THECRAFT]

Thanks mate

[@collinleblanc2562]

When that plume of smoke went up the funnel. It actually blew the funnel apart. That's why you don't see the funnel in the photos after the fire was out. But you can see a few parts of the funnel laying on the deck.

Thanks for the info

The explosion water blast looks very realistic and stunning Michael. I would like to ask, is there a huge difference between Infinity CR and the previous airbrush u had (bd-183) ?

[@4THECRAFT]

Thanks . Yes I feel that the infinity is much better and easier to clean. But is new. Ask me again after a couple of years

[@3DPlasticFantasy]

@@4THECRAFT Thank you for the feedback, I feel the difference if you paint on tiny spots, the paint will flow better.

Brilliant….but it could also be HMS Vanguard (explosion) or Royal Oak ( torpedo)…Italian Roma ( x bomb)or HMS Hood ( naval gunfire) ….all resulted in immense destruction and casualties very quickly…
