Thanks for the help everyone. And I am sorry about some of the misspellings. It would be a lot better if I was reading the books, but that is easier said than done for me. For now, I am listening to the books on tape, which means someone else has to pronounce those words I stumble on...like...

Not being a ship fanatic, I am having a problem with a few things. Currently, I am listening to C.S. Forester's Hornblower books on tape. Good books, but when the reader starts talking about (and excuse the spellings here) mizzenmast, top sails, foksail and other parts of the ship (HMS...

The Buckeye looks great Kancho. Definitely one for my skill level. Count me in as a customer.

I should probably try to build one of the eight or nine ship models I have here to really appreciate ship models. As for the guns, having not done any at that scale, and not being able to compare other designs, my comment is still...duh? 8v) I have ordered Answer's PT-109 kit and it should...

Ahhh...duh?

Four years at Elmendorf, two from 70-72, then again 83-85, and in those final two years, that was my favorite spot. Several weeks after arriving in Alaska in 83, I met a woman who, on our first date, took me there to hike and watch. We climbed a trail I hope is still there and watched the bore...

Lizzie...was that stitched photo taken at a roadside park? I have a series of photos I took in 1985 which look just like the mountain line in the background. If I recall, it was about halfway to Portage...but then that was 20 years ago and I have a hard time remembering what I had for breakfast...

I'm waiting delivery... 8v)

Funny thing about the fairies...a while back I was out late one night to get the moonlight just right during off and on rain showers (yes...where I live, it will rain, clear up, rain, clear up, ect). I wanted this light and conditions so I could shoot some photos of a fairy ring I found near my...

The first one...but make the stockings striped maybe. I have an aversion towards the color red for some reason...hehe. The test build looks pretty good.

Number two...looks more "fairy-like" so to speak.

Very nice model Rob...even though its Navy 8v) And congrats on breaking in with FG.

Joseph...thanks for another great model. And Roman, great work! The paint scheme on this bird is one of the best I have seen. Well done!

Being on broadband, I wasn't a fair test for speed...but your storage site did resize the image to my screen width which was nice.

Wow! Very nice line up...could that be called "Ships of the line" ? 8v)

One word... Wind Class Icebreaker ... well, make that three words. 8v) Preferably the Westwind from the early '80s time period.

Y'all sure it ain't the USS Indianapolis?

Since I don't know nothing 'bout ships and boats, I will say the same thing two weeks from now as I say now. The U.S.S. Indianapolis.

Kancho...I see the plans to one of my favorite aircraft in the background. Is that a hint as to your next offering?

I am really looking forward to see this model finished. I was on "Big Mo" just after Gulf War 1 when she stopped at Subic Bay on its return to the west coast. Then again when it stopped in Astoria, Oregon on its way to Hawaii for retirement duties. Magnificant boat in real life...should make...
