Well my expectations of completing the Nimitz by June 1 have fallen a wee bit short. I'm down to 4 more deck decals, about a dozen tiny parts to add. Props and antenna are all painted but will be the absolute last things to go on so they don't get broken off. I think there are 3 or 4 more decals to add like name on fantail and some small ones that go on island. Still have to paint the safety netting PE and place and glue aircraft on flight deck. Not much and looking at ship from a few feet away...well guys she looks magnificent. No pics until final completion....sorry guys I start school tomorrow too, so it'll be at least a week more. I promise pics after that
