After some time, Maddog Manufacturing Shipyards launched another ship for her shakedown cruise. Here is the Tamiya 1/700 scale USS Indianapolis as she sails on by:

She is pretty basic, mostly because I cannot afford aftermarket railings and rigging would bring about a bunch of breakage.

Comments are welcome, thanks for stopping in. Stay tuned, more ships will be coming down the slipways soon!

Even more impressive that she's a 1/700th scale project.
