Not built a ship for a while. You are pushing me over the edge into adding one to this years projects.
Go for it dragon do a very nice little uss Benson destroyer foot long inch wide the fits on there kits is as good as the tamiya stuff if not better they are over engineered but I like that it's sort of more build for your quid

Started the aircraft and flight deck equipment I'll post some pictures when I'm a bit further on with them I think I'll do the flight deck as if they are about to do a big aircraft assault so fighters at the front ready to take off torpedo bombers at the rear being redied


Got to airbrush some Vallejo Matt clear onto the hull at some point soon mainly to cover the gloss varnish I put down before the decals went on all the best guys for now

Fighters are almost done bombers still need wheels and canopies then Matt coat the lot


I painted the tow bars yellow not sure if this is correct but it gives a bit of colour to the flight deck just noticed the jeeps steering wheel is on the passenger seat lol so that will have to be fixed I also made some trollies for the torpedoes from various bits of photo etch it's nearly done now woo hoo please leave comments

Great work Roger, those 1/350 Aircraft must be a nightmare to do. Derek
