what do you guy prefer for ship model? Me, I prefer to them waterline because it's less paint consuming and more easy to paint for me

Depends on what you want to do with them.
If you want to display them, I prefer a full hull model.
If you want to use them for war gaming, obviously a waterline version would be preferable.

Full hull seemed ... wrong when I built my first model in 1961. "That's not how I see them." I built all the OBBs at Pearl and made a mockup of Ford Island.
