Seeing work of this calibre gives me a target to aspire to, all be it a very distant target, but such a wow factor.
Look forward to seeing much more.

Thank you very much DWD. I like your work in your Enterprise too. Youe level of detail is amazing.

New updates on the Nimitz.
I have started the flight deck. First of all, i have drilled the holes for the future lights.

Next. i have covered the entire flight deck with a layer of 1 mm. Evergreen.

Hi Jaguar very nice work indeed. It is always difficult to combine working features with a highly detailed model but you have achieved both .
