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.

Thanks.  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.

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.

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.

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.

Thank you everyone. I plan to post more updates when I start building the shadow box.
