Has anyone built up any of the Blue Water Navy 1/350th resin battleship kits? I have made up several of their subs, but have not tackled a resin surface ship to date. At over $300 I wouldn’t want to get into something I would get frustrated with and that would end up gathering dust on the closet shelf. I might add that while I mainly build aircraft I have built up a couple of DML’s destroyers and cruisers so I do know the bow from the stern!
Any 1/350 battleship, done properly, is a major project.
However, both of BWN’s SoDak class BBs, or the WeeVee, are great kits.
I would suggest getting your hands on a Tamiya Missouri or New Jersey, or any one of their BB kits (PoW, KGV, Yamato, Musashi, Bismarck or Tipritz) to get your feet wet first. The beauty of most resin kits is that you can get back what you paid for them in most instances.
