  1. Its a blessing that the Air Wing had no A-4s then!
  2. Ooops, late here again, and on page THREE no less! Fantastic looking subject Bill and a nice start on the cockpit. She looks great already, taped together like that! Watching with a keen eye. Terry
  3. That ALWAYS happens to me too, no matter what size of model! I was working on a very small model today (1/700 Minesweeper) and I ended up at the edge of the bench with the rest occupied by parts, reference books, tools and even two empty tea mugs! The Eduard etch looks the biz and you have certainly made a fine job of it. It's really going to make a difference. I remember seeing the Nimitz off Lee-on-Solent many years ago (1980 I think) when she was visiting Portsmouth. She had to anchor off shore as I guess she was too big to get into the Naval Dockyard. Amazing sight! Terry
  4. Loving the colours on this one CC. She's looking properly like a Vindicator now! Terry
  5. Very sad to hear about Terry Marriot Bill. Another of the great Stalwarts from back in the day. That's some serious windows work there, but I'm a Mac man myself..... T.
  6. Thank you each for three very helpful responses @Graham Boak, @Alan P and @Stephen Allen. Modelwarship proved extremely useful Graham and clearly has a huge amount of information to be found, and backs up the US Navy Gray #5 that Alan suggests. The Steel Navy site has become a bit strange to use. Not like I remember it from a long time back. That shipcamouflage link is also very helpful Alan and has opened up another fascinating window for me on the subject in general. Yes Steve, the model replicates some very fine planking on most decks but does have two areas that #20 would work, even though they are very small on this one! A great help folks! Terry
  7. Can anyone provide information, or point me in the right direction, as to what colours were used by the USN Navy, in the inter-war years? Particularly interested in the 1920's and early 1930's. I am building the very small Corsair Armada USS Vireo Lapwing class Minesweeper in 1/700 (the etch is driving me nuts) and want to try and get the Vertical and topside colours as close as possible. Many thanks Terry
  8. Missed this RFI. Came out looking beautiful Stuart. Great job. Terry
  9. Nice subject Martin, and nice NMF and nice masking! Should look great when done. Terry
  10. It would be this.........
  11. Well, I did just that! I do have one or two dremel type bits but they look a bit rougher than these, so I thought I'd try them out. Nice seeing this one come together Rob. She'll take a lot of paint though I imagine! Terry
  12. Great start Martian! In that last picture I can see four funnels though? Terry AKA, confused from over the water!
  13. Calm down Giorgio @giemme! Nice work on the LCU's! Terry
