Little preview of the work so far, up to a few hundred "rivets" and the immediate area around the stern post is done, save for shading which will be complete when the hull is fully "plated" then onto the labyrinth of cablem :|

Yes it is. I used Chapell's book as a reference. A number were built, exactly how many is a tad confusing (due to his writing style). A Coast Guard history site also has a great drawing labeled for the Louisiana.

Redondo, Don't tell us that that next one with the rivets is in SB Scale :o
