I have some Trumpy aircraft, Starfighter decals and GMM etch; I figure I will make one of the yellow-winged biplanes from the '30s, or one of the Arsenal Resin ones from the Béarn kit. I'll decide tomorrow. :wave_1:

File comment: Brightened up by Sean Hert - Thanks Sean =) However, the physical version is darker like the other pic.

No one wants to see my 1/350 planes, but I did build an aircraft carrier today!

I wish I could have used the old link system, the suspense would have been great.

O.k. This is my FIRST attempt at 1/350 aircraft. This is one of many Trumpy aircraft to eventually put on the flight deck of my Trumpy Hornet (which at the rate I build may never get started or finished). I began this on Tuesday and obviously have not finished, but don't have time to finish by tonight. The last pic includes a Dragon 1/700 OS2U for the Arizona I posted earlier, just for comparison. This one's not so good, but I learned some and so the next will be better...How many do I have to build for the Hornet at Midway?

Hope you like them.

Here's my entery in the Carrier aircraft Group Build. For the good of the air group I didn't finish one plane by it's self, so it's a wip.

This is Carrier Air Group 101(CAG 101) that was aboard the USS Boxer during the Korean War.

You can see the stages of painting the a/c in the picture.

1:I painted the a/c interior green around the cockpit area. (Panthers)
2: I painted the a/c Sea Blue (helicopters)
3: I painted the a/c Dark Sea Blue. (Skyraider & Corsairs)
