A very enjoyable build. Scale is a bit of an odd ball scale. Not many kits in 1/535. I was told that this scale was decided on the size of the box and therefore it's called a box scale kit. Not sure if that's correct though. Enjoyed the one piece hull. I think that the painting instructions could have used more detail. Did my hull in dazzle meaning camoflage. Useless trivia...the USS Missouri saves the world from aliens in the movie Battleship. Go Big Mo!
