I'm glad we already have box art for Baltimore. But having a box art is not enough. That's why our mills are turning hard. This also applies to Albacore, which is unfortunately already delayed due to unforeseen events. The first three pictures show the molds for 1/48 Baltimore, the last one shows the 1/72 Albacore.
