Ive run across some great pictures of fullsize battleships and Aircraft Carriers and their planes. I thought that I would post them here for your entertainment and for modeling purposes.:wink:

David,

Thats for sure Dave. Sorry about the limited text. A lot of these pics come with no discription. I guess they leave it up to you and your imagination. I will fill in where I can. The two pictures of Japanese battleships with the high "Pagoda" Bridge structures are one of the following: Fuso, Haruno, Mutso or Ise.

I know, I know, Where are the ships? Im going in the order of my stash files so that I dont lose my place. Patience. Ive got some really good stuff to post a little at a time. Many of these gun shots you can actually see the projectile!

The next time you see the bottom of these ships they wont look this good thats for sure!

[Grimm123]

wow, some great shots! it seems they like to shoot those big guns often, but i wonder where they do that? must be out to sea someplace secluded and empty.
i sure would not want to be UNDER one of those massive behemoths, i dont even like getting under a car!

[greenman407]

Ill second that.
