For bottles, you need reference photos; some will be oxygen, some acetylene for welding; some will be CO2 for firefighting.
The baskets are "floater net" baskets.  The Floater net was a big, criss-cross (apx 30cm)  net of (apx 3cm) rope with cork floats (±2cm x 15cm Φ).  These were meant to literally float off a sinking ship to provide something for the crew to cling to until a raft or ship's boat could reach them.  They were not a success, but, they were Regulation until 1946.

The long baskets (as on the turrets) held free-foating nets for crew survival if ship is lost.

I may be in the minority, but I love the Alaska class. I must do considering the long months accumulating the free xp to get her in  World of Warships. You have built a mighty fine looking ship in my eyes. Thank you for sharing.

what about maybe a 1/350 bismark?

Nice build, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Your skill-sets really did this model justice.👍

You did a beautiful job, I wish my hand was as sready.

Superb job.  One minor quibble would be to make sure the 5”/38 barrels are always exactly lined up in each mount.  They share a common trunnion so their elevation would be identical.  Still, she’s a beauty!  BZ! (“Well Done!”)

The thing that blows my mind is that your superglue just sticks.. I was building a little 1/350 fletcher and I had so many problems with PE pieces, especially the railings, that just didn't stick. I'd get them placed perfectly and then they'd get bumped or nudged and they'd pop off or shift into the wrong position and then they would stick. The end result was adequate but watching you just place the pieces and they stick is giving me major envy.

Thank you for sharing this great video! 👍👍👍

In Box Reviews have their place but there is nothing like a build video to expose the pro and cons of a kit and I am sure it keeps the manufacturers on their toes considering what the $$ they ask for a kit these days

Another stunner! Thanks for sharing and showing what can be done...if you have the patience and skill of course!
