1/700 ARA Almirante Brown (Tamiya)
The model was build using the USS Cushing from Tamiya as a base kit
and making the necessary modifications to represent this Fletcher class
destroyer in its post-war configuration. This ship served in the Argentine
Navy during the '60s and '70s, along with four other destroyers of the
same class. To detailing it I used PE sets from different sources, having
to improvise in the case of the radar antennas with the remains of other
PE sets. It was painted with Humbrol enamels and weathered with oil paints.
