Excited to have partnered and received Hull Number Decals for our Benham, Bagley and eventual Gridley class Upgrades and kits. Designed and Produced by Kenny Loup at Gator’s Model Studio, these one piece beauties are crisp and lay down wonderfully over a gloss coat. Each sheet includes 4- white hull numbers for all of the Gridley, Bagley and Benham classes, so one sheet can do all 22 ships!
The later war Bagley's are just about done. All major superstructures are done, just have to do the reinforcement ribs on Mounts 51 & 52. Once these get a successful test print, they will be available in the shop.
