never was a big admirer of flat tops until the last few years, but the more I see and read about them, the more I've come to appreciate their technological achievement and now some of my favorite ships are flat tops!

Si, Your build is certainly a great tribute to a landmark ship in terms of the USN's development of the carrier vessel type

PS. Highly recommend the new Midway film, if you haven't seen it already

Hi Russ,

I must admit, as a modeller I am a battleship man, but I love the esoteric engineering of this fine ship, and for such an important ship she is somewhat forgotten.

I have seen midway, totally agree, very good film indeed,

Thanks for looking in Mate.

Cheers

Si

Si,

Fine progress, she is taking shape nicely. The stair placement looks good, I always have a hard time getting the angle correctly.

Mark

Now we are cooking with gas. She is coming on beautifully!

Si,

just very nice work here, as well. She's looking much more busy with all those fine details below the flight deck than I had assumed at first. Great etch work once again, coming along nicely. The new workshop seems to be very effective!

Cheers
Jan

Looking really nice Si. You should be happy with the effort so far.....Cheers mark

One of the kit 5", not too bad, intend to use these, unless I can source enough black cat or veteran parts.

Si,

Nice progress. I hope the decals go on those planes easier than they did for me with the Akagi build.

These look pretty good. I would happily use them on one of my kits.

Si, been away from the site for a while. Catching up I see you are onto another great build. Will be watching!

I love the look of planes seen in the hangar through the side roll doors... very cool!

I can't agree more.

Si,

Those planes look wonderful and they sure look accurate to me.

The planes are pretty good, the decals are the issue, the stars and bars should have a red surround, but have not been able to find any appropriate decals.

I can live with this little issue.

Thanks for looking in Mate.

Hi Si,

Take a look at Gold Medal Models WW2 USN AIRCRAFT DECALS (1/350 SCALE). If your planes' markings start to bother you, this set has the US national markings with the red surround.
