2 Projects I'm doing

Recently I started some new projects.

  1. I am designing a scratch built 1/700 Charles De Gaulle CVN. The prototype I am building is strictly to aid my design work. I enlarged a 1:1500 scale line drawing to 1:700 scale and cut a pattern of the flight deck from styrene.I have used i-beam styrene to make it rigid. and to raise it to the proper level above the water line. It looks awkward.

  2. I am converting a Waveline Resin kit from the USS Leahy to USS Belknap. In the odd chance that I make one that looks halfway decent I’ll post a picture.

Sounds like a fun project. I know because I have built several SCB125 Essex class carriers using your methods of plan coversions and using lots of sheet styrene. Can’t wait to see your progress.

I must be out of my mind!!!

By Belknap conversion is ok sort of. My CdG is a disaster. [8)][8)][8)][8)][8)][8)]
