These 3D-printed models represent the fire control director stations known as "fighting tops" of the Colorado-class battleship USS West Virginia BB-48 as they appeared in 1941, including at Pearl Harbor on December 7th. Shutters on the models are in the closed position.
The models' overall dimensions are based on official 1933 US Navy Booklet of General Plans drawings of the ship with details adjusted to match 1941 to 1942-era photos.
The models feature extensive, subtle rivet detail.
These 3D-printed parts are designed from official US Navy drawings. They are NOT 3D-printed copies of any plastic or resin model kit's parts, therefore they may be sized and shaped differently from your kit's parts. Some adjustment to your kit's parts or other aftermarket parts such as photo-etch may be necessary for best fit.
