Hi,
Thanks for your comment, your in luck I currently can't take a pic of my fleet of 70 ships since 90% of them are packed in moving boxes, (well custom built moving boxes) which is killing me!
As for the speed of builds my trick is, I build in sections, when I get a kit I work on the hull, cleaning, and if there aren't any major modifications I install the drive shafts, propellers and rudder. Next step is clean and test fit the deck then I build all the large parts of the superstructure in sections, once all that dries for a day I go back and clean all the joints and start doing the research on deck color and any additional detail I need to build.
To be fair, I have only started with PE detailing in the last five years so the majority of my ships I have to go back and revisit to do the PE detailing.
I included a pic of my ship yard, from left to right is the French sub Surcouf, Japanese transport no103, USS Independence LCS-2, Graf Zeppelin (85% complete but on hold since Trumpeter announced they are coming out with one), DKM Bismark, Russian battle cruiser Pyotr Velikiy, Admiral Hipper, Blucher and last but not least HMS Belfast. My carriers unfortunately I can't do anything on since they are way to hard to transport, but if you look at my previous posts I did work on the airwings for my carriers.
Well enjoy!
