it's been awhile. I will post some updated photos Monday.

How is the "beehive" coming. I hope you saved the info or even better have some duplicate parts. I would really love to backdate mine. It may mean pulling off the Phantoms from my Nimitz, but I've got a couple boxes of Tomcats and Hornets I can replace them with.

Hi ya Steve, I tell you what I'll build the island for ya. It will be later next month,because i have to finish these Forrestal hulls.

To quote an old car advertisement.

WHO COULD ASK FOR ANYTHING MORE

followed by an astoundingly large WOW

Look forward to it.

Steve haven't forgotten about your island. pushing to get these Forrestals hulls done.

Thanks for the update, I am still buried up to my eyeballsin my Kogo build.

Steve,sorry it's taking a long time to finish your island. made some mistakes along the way trying to finish it. I'll post the finish island next Monday. Again sorry for the delay.

My friend, take all the tie you want. All of your projects are just mind boggeling to watch grow and grow.

updated photos Monday.

these will be going on the BigE on Monday.

this is my test mule A-4F for the Starfighter decals. the tailplanes need to be thin down and the overall model needs a very light sanding to get the seams out. but this is a well detail little model.

found my decals for the airwing. will be posting the next 4 days.

It has been awhile. Feelin better back on the job next Monday.
