About this creation
While MOCcers across the globe competed in the MOClympics, while builders like matt Rowntree and Nick Barrett stunned us into submission, while High School decided to dish out exams, the engineers at Prasad Heavy Industries' Shipyard Division have been hard at work, furiously building a new vessel. Just yesterday, the final piece was added, and the ship, christened the USS Missouri left the slipway. Today, PHI is releasing two images, to show the public that yes, this company is still building! Thank you!

Ah yes, the top view. Pick out any and all details. Some may give away the secrets of this vessel....
4th Wall Rambling:
....I don't do these usually, but hey, why not. So yeah, I haven't been too active lately. School + Battleship - activeness= I don't know where I'm going with this.... But anyways, I promised that I'd build a battleship, an Iowa Class vessel. I can now say that I have. Yay. More images will be coming soon (the date has not been set yet) but till now, feel free to speculate the inner, and outer, workings of this ship.
Thanks for watching, and see you at a later date that is yet to be decided....

Thanks for the tips! They will give me a great place to start off from, and hopefully I will have a battleship, destroyer or even a supply ship out by July. As for this teaser, I think it is safe to say that the Missouri turned out quite well... |

Quoting cyberfrank 2010
the ship looks great, I guess the turrets are motor powered, same as David, I ll even go further by adding you had them synchronized too, as they must turn in tandem, xd, I saw the orange part on the side, wich suggests battery operated, knowing you, I bet you went to the trouble of overcoming the challenge of fitting it all in it, as, it s really not often done, if ever, I can t wait to see it operate on video, xd.
I cannot confirm, or deny, whether the turrets are RC controlled :-D But I will say that there are some features in the ship, and there will be a video showcasing it with my carrier and destroyer :-D |
