Hi all! One of two sisters I'll post seperately, both Skywave.

JMSDF Tachikaze DDG168 1/700 scale Skywave kit no.40/SW-1200.

Built OOB 14Aug1993 along with a sister ship DDG169. A nicely detailed kit with no problems encountered, I didn't have the correct paint colour so I used what I had I didn't realize it was too light for the ship's sides. Lightly weathered by dry brushing. A fun build all up 8-) 8-)

There is actually a third sister DDG-170, but she's still in her box :-D and will look different when built in correct colours, PE and rigging ;-) ;-)
