Fantastic work!

Thanks for taking us to school.

Man, you won. Just unbelievable work.

Incredible work...

This is really impressive work; your pursuit of detail is awesome.
Again thanks repeatedly for sharing with us.
Do you mind my asking what you're using for reference?
Surely this is more than just internet photo's?

Thank you Rob, all my photos I got mostly from searching over a period of 7 years on the web. It's not an easy search, and feel these days there are less to find 7 years back. I still have areas I have no clue how it works, but will figure it out when I get there hehe. I hope this brings back memories 4 u =)

okay guys, updates on the way. I guess there will always be elements you will not be 100% satisfied, tiny parts that irritated me, but the end came out very pleasing enjoy

last loose images of parts...

Okay, this is the assembled items of the stern. Unfortunately, this will be my last post for a very long time regarding the progress on her. I will return some day but this will be it for now. I hope you guys enjoyed my build up till this point and will see you guys in the future again.The last image shows every part taken into storage (Yes, everything is still dry fit). Cheers and be safe out there

Last post for a long time? I hope everything is alright.

I will definitely miss the progress you have been making. I had hoped to be able to use your work as inspiration in the near-ish future.

Who am I kidding, by the time I get to the Enterprise CVN-65, you will be back.

Stay healthy,

Chris

Yes, please take care! And thanks for all your wonderful posts.

Thanks guys, I will be starting on the hangar next time we kick off. So far, I have altered as much as I can around the ship that requires drilling and cutting. The plan ahead is to get the hangar done, and then work the way out glueing parts together and cleaning all seams etc. Lol seems like a Neverending process.
I am healthy, and will be looking at how to design my hangar over the coming months.
