3d challenge 091 - USS UTAH BB-31



This challenge has been the hardest yet. Well considering that I have only had four entries that is not saying much. The main reason this challenge was difficult was that we could not come up with just any concept design, the battleship had to be real. So I modeled the Utah using black and white pictures. which makes the model nowhere near close to accurate, but it does somewhat resemble it. Just a little history on the USS Utah bb-31 first set sail in a trial run in 1911. since that test run there have been 3 ships that have sailed under the Utah name. the last being in Pearl Harbor and now rest as a memorial which only active military men can view. The Utah name was retired after the attack. During the time that the Utah was active it had earned 1 battle star for the U.S.
