The texture of your water is so lifelike! Can you tell us how you acheived that effect?
(p.s.-I know you said no rivet counting, but from this perspective your biplane looks a bit overscale...)

Gary:

You got CVN-65 and 68. Would this not also qualify for the unsung sisters campaign as well?

One thing I noticed is the f-14 looks a little out of scale to me, but that could be the angle of the pic or a manufacturers goof.

One question I do have is what designation is the new secret purple biplane now deployed in your fleet. The paint job is outstanding!!!!!!!!
