gtb -red Posted November 8, 2011 Author Share Posted November 8, 2011 she is not finish Holmes. screwup on the portside. has to be rebuilt,getting old in my age. the large sponsons is not whole,but two section. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gtb -red Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 O.K. it has been awhile. feel a lot better and going full speed ahead. Hancock is first up. the hull did not look right to me so I did some cutting and reshapeing. fligthdeck also was redone. added the bulkheads and braceing to make it strong and not warp. she looks rough,but in two weeks she will look like she did in Nam. some photos.
