This was a bit of a "side-project" during my trip to Bikini Atoll in June 2023. At the ends of a few dives, I would go take pictures with the goal of maybe seeing if I had enough to do the 5" guns and then I started working on the island structure, and then...

Anyway, 3000+ photos later, I built a model of the 5" guns and the island. It isn't the best model ever and I didn't use any artificial light and had some hiccups, but I thought it was worth publishing. The background and the dive-by-dive progress is at the post below.

The post also includes link to the on-line, live model.


Here is a screen capture of the on-line 3D model:
