I see too many rigged ships with shoe string thick rigging


Some of us can barely tie our actual shoe strings! Awesome rigging work!

All hangar walls are built. Now I just need to finish the outer door entry bays or whatever you call them, and hangar floor markings.

James Looking great there buddy, those things are called "Round Downs" or at least that's what we called them other than a "PITA" moving aircraft in and out of them. LOL again loving the work there and keep it going.

This hangar looks great. Amazing the level of detail you have achieved.
Waiting for new updates.

Thanks Jorge. This is not going to be a super detailed project but not OOB either. Just a little more progress. I am currently working on hangar equipment and aircraft. I'm in need of Trumpeter F-14B aircraft. Anyone want to donate to my cause.
