She’s making steady progress and I’ve had a few flights and traps from the deck :encouragement:

Model and most of the animations are done. Night lighting and an air wing I need to work on next.

Been distracted over the summer with holidays, a new job, and trying my hand at scenery design knocking up devonport dockyard for a submarine and frigate project for myself.

Great thread and great update, Gary!! It's going to be raining Essex carriers between what you and Klaus have on the go!

I love that the huge gap in the USN CVs of the 50s and (depending on your choice of air wing) early 60s is being so awesomely addressed.

Many thanks in advance.

Great news Gary - thanks for updating all your fans here!

Geez, but that is just beautiful!

With Klaus's straight deck Essex class carriers out (and other classes of historic carriers coming along) thought I would check in again on this one. If time is a limiting factor, maybe permission Klaus to give the model the finishing touches? This is now the big missing piece in the puzzle!

Cheers!

greetings

Please don't forget the USS Intrepid CVS-11, the USS Wasp CVS-18, or the USS Yorktown CVS-10.
I know they're museums now, but once upon a time they were the mainstay of ASW carrying "Stoofs", "Sea Kings" and an occasional "Tinker Toy"

Wanted to see if there is any news on Gary's updated angled deck Essex class carriers. I need a Hancock and Tico to land the beautiful RFN Crusader on!

You know that the Oriskany is already in SOH library. Right ?...

Oh absolutely. My favourite carrier. :jump: It's kind of nice to match aircraft paints deployed to a specific boat to the same carrier.

Yeah but that version is rubbish! :playful:

Someone else asked and I was going to complete a couple of bits and pieces off to get it finished but with all the stay at home sales on I’ve been going a bit mad with the credit card and enjoying some flying for a change (been nearly 7 months since I’ve done that and I’ve forgotten what I’ve been missing!)

ill get get back to it next week as I’ve not installed the RFN crusader....yet :encouragement:

cheers
