vintage modeler Posted February 14, 2014 Share #31 Posted February 14, 2014 Really looking good, the PE railings look clean and delicate and add a lot. Makes me want to start mine but I'm up to my armpits in a 64 I/2 Mustang and a rusted out 32 Ford for next weeks Club Challenge.

I guess the PE is going ok, I am dealing with shaking hands and hainvg to use bi-focals for the first time. I understand about your ordeal with the Mustang, I have a few cars that need my attention. Right now, the shop has been too cold and damp for my liking.

ScottRC Posted December 27, 2017 Author Share #34 Posted December 27, 2017 Its been almost four years ago and I forgot about this build log. I did finish the Lex and hopefully get a display cabinet built in the future for it and all my Dad's certificates and burial flag. Here are the completed pictures. I hope I can say that I actually completed my first build log. russ, ccoyle, GrandpaPhil and 3 others 6 Quote Current Builds: Revell 1:96 Thermopylae Restoration Revell 1:96 Constitution COMPLETED Aeropiccola HMS Endeavor IN ORDINARY Planned Builds: Scientific Sea Witch Marine Models USF Essex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottRC Posted December 27, 2017 Author Share #35 Posted December 27, 2017 I also completed a 1/700 CV2 Lexington this year, and for Christmas, received a 1/700 CV16 in WW2. So now my goal is to have a model of all the ships called Lexington. Here is a pic of all three.

ScottRC Posted February 21, 2020 Author Share #36 Posted February 21, 2020 Well, maybe I'm not finished. I am experimenting with water techniques (styrofoam, gels, and cotton) and decided to start building a shadow box display for my father's burial flag and Navy certifications and commendations. Here are some recent pics of my progress.

vintage modeler Posted February 22, 2020 Share #40 Posted February 22, 2020 Nice job. I have this kit also along with the decals in my stash. Hope to build it someday as I also served on her back in the 50's but only for a couple weeks doing carrier quals.
