For Hitech

I know Waffle and Dux could do better but I think it's pretty good.

I think you tried match color from a picture, and did not paint the color of pre lit paint.

[Easyscor]

That's correct. I did my best to match the color but the _E,_S,_P files need redoing now, I guess I might need some help from Waffle if he has the time.
Oh, and some sort of blue really is the color per the National Park service.

Is that the Arizona?

Is that the Arizona?

With some shortcuts taken, yes. I'll be adding boats on the deck, handrails and the missing anchor chains. It's intended as a dumship target for the AvA Pearl Harbor terrain to be released at the end of this month.
Going 200 mph lining up for a torpedo run, you won't notice the shortcuts. But if you bail out and walk up the boarding ramp, that's another story.

That image was actually originally published by the (Honolulu) Star-Bulletin in 2006 so it didn't originate on a gaming site. The Image is reproduced on many websites since then. The Star-Bulletin interviewed the Park Service for the dedication of a large model and a facility upgrade, then published the story that goes with it.

You doing a clipper bow to stand in for the California, West Virginia, Tennessee and Maryland?  Thanks for taking the time to do this at all

I'm not familiar with the term 'clipper bow', but additional ships are planed.

The clipper bow BB’s were sleeker looking in my opinion.  Look at the profile of USS West Virginia or one of the other three that were at Pearl and you’ll see the difference from Arizona, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and Nevada

[Easyscor]

Will do. Thanks.

That is a sleek looking ship and only about seven years after the Arizona iirc. I've been known to say the Arizona was designed by a mad man in the middle of a steampunk nightmare. Those ships were actually state of the art when they were designed. Even later in the war, they were still using broadsides in ship to ship engagements.

Great job on the Arizona Easyscor, it will really add to the event I am sure. Can it actually sink when hit or is it just set on fire?

From a skinning point of view I reckon painting ambient occlusion shadows in the corners between decks and vertical surfaces would make it look more realistic.

The newspaper artist's interpretation of "bright medium blue" may be off.  Here's an more plausible interpretation from the model in question:  Remember that our perception of color is greatly affected by the distance from which it is viewed (also known as "scale color" when applied to models), and also by lighting.

The destroyed object will have fire and only the stern Mast structure showing; I havn't decided how much of it yet. A future version of the class will have the stern hull so that if it's sunk it will act the same as the other ships.

After I have all the destroyed object completed, I'll get back to the colors before moving on. Even if I put the right color into diffuse, the other channels can change it completely and I don't know if I'll see it.

Thanks for the support guys.
