Hi, here is my 1/700 project - HMS Victorious in 1965 build.
It's a build based on 1/700 Aoshima's WII Victorious + Airfix's 1/600 1958 Victorious(Island and Deck) with lots of scratchbuilt parts. It's 70% done since project started 8 months ago
Best,
Mo

Re: HMS Victorious
Very nice work man! 
Great job on scaling down the 1/600 deck too. It looks seamless now! Are you going to add a hangar deck or is everything glued already?

Re: HMS Victorious
@Brian, I got the PE from WEM's 1/600 "Ultimate" modern RN set1. Since it's 1/600 I trimmed everything down to 1/700 scale.
