I would like someone to build my favorite (and the only one remaining) dreadnought: the USS Texas (BB-35), a dreadnought battleship launched in 1912 and is now a museum ship today at 107 years old.

    @Jim1the1Squid it doesn't seem to work when you do it. See by yourself above

    Thanks @ChiyomiAnzai
    This is my favorite dreadnought battleship purely because of how awesome it is. 107 years old? The last remaining dreadnought battleship IN THE WORLD???
    I'm pretty sure you can see why it's my favorite.
    Also, could you try it in the paint job it has today (Navy Blue almost all over for low visibility)?
