Wow, your shipyard is still very busy Nektarios. COngratulations for your ships. I'm very pleased to see the deck vehicles I made on a carrier. :wave_1:
Just one question : there's a ship between the cvn-72 and the Arleigh Burke class destroyer, who is she ?

Have a good day

Thanks for your answer Nektarios.

Regarding the vehicles sets : in 1/700 all sets are sold. I will consider making some more in the second part of june. I'll make a few changes, probably make the wheels as separate parts, because I had many casting problems with them. (I had many tractors which were ok, but had bubbles in the wheels, and thus couldn't be used at all)
In 1/350 : I will make a set too, with P-25 mules, tow tractors and spotting dollies. This is scheduled for the second half of june too.
Right now I'm working hard for my final exams at university, which start on the second on june.

I agree, that's a nice piece of work, I can imagine the frustration involved in that camo scheme, I've done similar work before. The work on your aircraft similarly is beautiful, Nektarios.

As usual, excellent Nektarios! I got your e-mail, but I didn't reply as I was out of town-just FYI.
