Song:
A very convincing deck grey on the fantail! Looking at all the "stuff" hanging off the sides of the ship, one wonder if a lot of this could have been left off the actual ship without impacting her mission as an aircraft carrier. Perhaps a little too much luxury in design and construction? The ship appears in detail much like an industrial park and warehouse than the magnificent ship she is. You are doing a wonderful job at recreating this huge vessel in all it's complexity. An excellent job in breaking down this huge ship into a large number of manageable sub projects, eating the elephant one bite at a time!
Best regards! Tom

Song. Did I spy some PE inclined ladders? Is this your first use of such items? Without regard the ship is beyond the usual high expectation!

Re: 1/200 USS Nimitz
Song!
I can already imagine being on final approach for an arrested landing. On board the ship seems quite large but as seen form above at sea, does not seem large at all. Approaching at 140 knots it seems even smaller. This model will require several people to move?
Most spectacular!

It is very difficult to land on the carrier.
I think two more man need to move.

Re: 1/200 USS Nimitz
Hi gentlemen!
I do more and more mark on the deck.
And then made holes(marking) for tie down.
The runway lighting hole also.

Re: 1/200 USS Nimitz
the fact that you are using other materials as well is definately welcomed.
I hope though that we will enjoy more of your wooden masterbuilds in the future.

Re: 1/200 USS Nimitz
Mmmmm, circuit boards, capacitors, resistors, modeling can become quite complex. Model Railroaders have been electronically engaged for some time, I suppose the RC ship types have been so for quite a while as well.
Your project becomes increasingly spectacular!
