1/700 USS Hornet CV-8 Complete

Post by hypno7 »

It is complete! (at least for now)

It is not a perfect model, but I sure had fun researching it and building it.

Thank you all that helped me with material and comments during the build.

Thanks for watching!

I refuse too believe that this is 1/700! :heh: Joking aside, that is some mighty fine workmanship there. First class build all around. Will definitely follow along on your next build.
