I’m enjoying this focus on a specific class. Could you do the same for the six USN Connecticut class pre-dreadnoughts as their is little on KZbin about them & the six RN Canopus class pre-dreadnoughts? Thanks.

I’ll have to look into the Connecticut class but I plan to do the Canopus class once I get through the Majestic class

Great video, and that's a great looking model! 1/350 scale?

[@BarbettesAndBinnacles]

Thank you! And close, I make all the ships in my videos at 1/500th. They’re all 3D printed and then hand painted.
