Image Image Image Image Image Image Image Image Did not like the kit horns so I made new ones. The hull is done just need a few things on it then a heavy wash. Hangar Bay needs more decals on deck and also on the bulkheads. 4# elevator has the GMM p.e. Start on the air wing and equipment this weekend Happy Modeling! :wave_1:

Hey Miguel those are the two bridle catchers in front of the bow. They use to catch the cables when the aircraft left the deck. The photos of kit ones look bulky. The ones I made from scratch look better. Thanks for looking!

Hi Mardis. The work is looking great. Could you post some closeups of the aircraft and hanger details?

Cheers
Carl
