A little teaser for my new USS Arizona build, I hope you like it!
Sorry for the laggy parts but the total number of parts on the spawned builds (The Arizona itself, the scenery battleships, and the sailor) in the second part of the video is close to 3000 (or more) so my computer was struggling.
I tried spicing up the video a little bit with sound effects, I know they are a bit lame but I think they do the job.
@Usatiger It is built upon nagisa's frame 6 build but that is not available on the site anymore. But his suzu build is also based on it so you can use that one to make your own walker maybe. I'm not planning to release this sailor as it was only built for these videos
@Tang0five they marked battleship divisions and individual battleships so that friendly planes can more easily identify them from the sky. The forward two turrets marked the battleship division (div. 1 was red, div. 2 was white div. 3 was blue, div. 4 was black, div. 5 was yellow) while turret number 4 marked the ship itself.
For Example, Arizona, Nevada and Oklahoma were part of Battleship Div. 1 and as such, their number 1 and 2 turrets were painted red (with each one of them having different colored number 4 turrets according to their sections: Arizona's No.4 turret was red as she was the division's lead ship, Nevada's No.4 turret was white, Oklahoma's No.4 turret was blue)
Similarly, ships of Battleship Div. 2-3-4-5 all had different colors on their No.1 and No.2 turrets (for example, USS Tennessee was the lead ship of Div. 2, so her forward turrets were white while her number 4 turret was red)

@MintLynx Yeah. When I built my USS Texas replica, I thought, why not have a walk on it (that's where the idea for that video came from), and boy did it feel so huge. When building these, it feels like I'm just playing with lego or something, but when I spawn on them with a human figure and start walking, that is when I really feel their size and it's amazing.
Man when you're like me and build them a lot you forget just how big 1:1 scale warship builds really are. Taking a walk on one really goes to show the scale of these ships, I look forward to when she's out!

Comment 'T' to get tagged when the final build releases (if you already commented T at the previous teaser post, you don't have to do it again)
@BMilan hey Milan you should publish the walker as unlisted
I want the human walker
@BMilan thanks man

Looks awesome! What were the red patches on the turret roofs for?

looks weird how this walker is small compared to the ship
