Looks very nice, I've always liked this design.

I think I'm going to have to get back into ship building myself. I wanna build this and the Freedom variant of the LCS along with other US Navy warships. But I will start with some battleships once my latest crop of builds are all done.

Keep up the good work.

Hi

I'm a bit of a Trumpeter kit fan so I'll start off saying that this looks like a nice kit to try - the build coming on well. It looks like Dave has found your answer for the curved red lines.

The USS Independence however is not for me though - its a tad too modern looking for me however I will follow with interest to see what your finished Independence looks like

For the danger circles you need to get hold of the Hawk Graphics modern usn decal sheets.

Yeah thanks. Just wondering if there is a way to make something my self, like a template for painting (cardboard or something).

Thanks mate. I hope when this is finished it will be good enough to convince you to build it too :)

I'm stalled at the PE railings on this....inspire me to resume please! :)

I like what you did inside the hanger. Pity I've mine closed up. And I just went with the kit decals so no red danger circles. Must dig out a picture....

:D Finally over after 3 months, It could be better but also it could have been worse, haha. I like the final result, as this is my second ship model, 4th all together. First time i worked with PE parts. Most important thing is that I am very happy and that I enjoyed working on it :)

I will post final pictures in day or two :)

Thanks for following my topic, and see you soon with Star Trek Enterprise :)

Very nice Perger, I have one of the Freedom class ships but the Independence class has been slowly growing on me over the years. You have turned out a good looking model!
