Wow, what a model. Kelly, you sir are a master of ship models. This thing is out of this world. I just joined this site and after looking at your work I'm glad I found this site. I'm new to ship building stuff but I've already picked up couple of trick after reading just introduction to your build. I'm going to have to save it all so I can learn and apply toward my first carrier. If I can make mine 1/4 as good as yours I'll be pleased. Also, thank you for leaving your photographs up. Mike

Hi, thats a very nice pice of work. And because of that, im woundering if you could help me. I`ve just bought the USS Nimitz 1/350 from trumpeter. And as you know it comes in its 1975 fit. I would very much like to modernize it to around 2005 or higher. But i know absolutly nothing about scratchbuilding, so I was hopeing to get some instructions if its not to much trouble:). I whant to build all the sponsons, the domes, the hangardeck, weaponsstations and so on. I would realy be happy if you could
Thanks Tom

I quoted on August the 8th Quote: Another astonishing build Kelly, looks like it's going to be a big winner. How prophetic.

It's not a model, it's pictures of the real ship. I was studying the starboard side profile of the island and I swear I saw a sailor walking along a railing....goosebumps. Great work Timm

I sure hope that all the carriers don't have to measure up to this!!! If they do, then I think I may havt to wave the white flag!
