raiderhall1 Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 Started on this build. The hull is the J.F.K it is the same size as my Kitty Hawk. Lots of different sponsons from both ships. The America is closer to the J.F.K then the Kitty Hawk in design. Have more later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob 1 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 This will be an epic build. Presume you are using the JFK as the base kit and using various parts from a Kittyhawk kit. Are you going for her later years in service or doing any back-dating to an earlier year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raiderhall1 Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share Posted May 29, 2017 Thanks for the comment Rob. Yes she will be in her Vietnam area. 1967. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob 1 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 That sounds much more appealing to do her at one of the most distinctive periods of 20th century history, carrying F4s and A6s. Should be good, I'll be watching with interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
