Plasmo: "This kit was a bit lacking in detail. so i scratch built a time machine, went back to the Philadelphia Experiment machine, duplicated and upgraded it to make copies of ships, went back to WW2, used the machine on the Yamato, went and built another machine to reduce the atomic space between particles, and shrunk the Yamato copy to 1/700 scale. Then added some photoetch and scratch built bits anyway" :D Epic build.

I have two of them, the 700 and the 800 and plan to build them by my 70th year,, so I have 5 years to finish !! I also appreciate that when you were DONE, you were Not done yet,, you still found improvements and touch ups that met your eyes,,, I do the same as a perfectionist will strive to do,, this is Honorable and brings peace to you once you have fully completed the task !,, I have 3 Bismarks, one for a top diorama, one for a build and one for a "sunk" build,, and plan for them to be completed as well,, with a somewhat same taste as you have performed,.. I offer my respect and admiration for your work, and for your time and attention.. I have saved your video to help me, when I do my models one day,, A good day to you Sir,, May it bring peace and sunshine.... PS
