Great work. I love to follow your builds. Thanks for posting.

Love what you do Red, Have been enjoying your work here and at HLI.......Cheers Mark

Thanks guys,more this weekend.

more photos tomorrow.

Hancock looks shabby, but i'm trying something new here. if this works i could lay down 3-4 carrier hulls a week. i'm not using the customer Oriskany hull for good reason. some photos.

should be done with both hulls next Monday night.

should be done with both hulls Monday night.

Oriskany hull is finish. just needs fuel lines and railngs on the outside of the hull. also the hanger bay will have more detailing.

just wanted to see what the aircraft look like in the hanger bay.

flight decks this weekend.

messup on both flightdecks. papercard was tooo thin. will fix that next Sunday.

update tonight.

both hanger bay have painted and detail.

Looks good!

Is that a size comparison with a Nimitz class? Do you have any images with other 1/350 ships for size comparison?

Cheers,

Harm

Thank You! That is a 1/350 Saratoga made out of papercard also.

I think I ran out of adjectives for your work years ago. Just enjoy the hell out of seeing what you come up with.

Thanks Steve, have something coming up later in the summer time. maybe a model company may do it in plastic.

Oriskany has been painted. still needs amore detail on the hull.

Ok.... that gives a nice idea...

Where dp you leve these ships when they are finished, considering their size...

Cheers,

Harm
