You are turning that into a really nice looking kit. It amazes me how she looks now given what you had started with.

Looking good! Interesting subject too!
What is causing you the headaches? I hope these steps are finished now the main elements are fitted together...

Cheers,

The funnel has to be fix instead of it being straight it has angle at the rear. Hopefully this weekend I will place aircraft inside the hangar bay. They will be all the white metal from Blue water.

Just painted the hull. Add some aircraft in the hangar bay. I'll be working on the island and rest of the flight deck this weekend.

A very light coat of Thompson Water Seal. Then a light coat of Polley S USN Blue Gray. I want just
a touch of the wood to bleed thru. I sit want black marks on the deck. Thanks for looking!

Looking Great Mardis, My work with the 2016 Nationals is all done except for a few minor bits..... I have the Blue Ridge USS Wolverine on the Slipway..... ease back into it as I still sort out my new place and finally get the Theodore Roosevelt back out and on the bench.

Happy Modeling

John
