WEM's 1/350 photoetch hangar set for the Hornet is absolutely fantastic! Here are a few in progress pics:



Here's one showing a little scratchbuilt detail on one of the bulkheads:

Looks very impressive.  Love the built up shots.  I'm glad to see a good review of this set as I have it to complete my Hornet's hangar deck when I get around to her, maybe later this  year.  I'm thinking about attempting to not only detail out the hangar deck, but also light it with LEDs.  Might be beyond my skill level, especiallly any scratch building beyond just cutting bulkhead panels, but I'm going to give it a shot.  As Jimmy Buffett said, "there may be no exit, but hell, I'm goin in".
