You ability to carve such items is impressive, more so in getting them to be the same. I had great difficulty in just doing two 26' motor whaleboats from basswood for Alaska. Working with wood, a natural material, is indeed very satisfying. We do look forward to the keel laying of the carrier!

Best regards: Tom

As always you have brilliantly broken the helicopters into several components that are easier to produce. In carving the concave areas are the most difficult and you have managed to avoid this as much as possible.

Wonderful to see the blocks of wood, added into reality by subtile removal by eye and hand. Complex shapes one can see in the mind. I have always been impressed by the art of the sculpture, how did Michelangelo create is art from a block of stone!

A satisfying result! Cheers: Tom

An impressive airgroup! All you need as well is a C-130 that Jimmy Flatley Junior landed on a carrier!
