It looks awesome gtb. I hope your personal problems are resolved.
Some photos of LHD-5. The Revell kit has been modified in order to have the differences starting from LHD-5 and later ships of the class.
The PE set from GMM was once more very easy to use and made the kit look really nice.
The aircraft are a mix of Revell (AV-8Bs), DML (CH-53s), Pitroad (SH-60s), and WEM (CH-46s, UH-1Ns and AH-1s)

I have been enjoying all of the post in this section. I have been away for a while.
Nektarios - Where did you receive the Kilauea 1/700 kit. I saw it in the ship review area and tried the contact info with no luck.
I am currently working on the JAG AOE, making it the AOE 3 USS SEATTLE similar to the fittings of 2003, (for about a 2 years now). Then awaiting the new up coming JAG kit.
Thank you all for posting some great models.

I got the Kilauea kit directly from the company that produces it. Which address did you use to contact Ships and Co? You may add your AOE-3 in progress photos here so that all of us can see. I 'm sure they will look great judging from the quality of your previous works. I 'm waiting for the Jag kit too.
