Joachim P. Daang! This sounds like an even harder task at all, my hats off!! Well, just recieved the parcel from www.sora.de today, but I would fancy this glass-cover alternative very much, please let me know more about. I wonder if Revell provided the PE instructions?

Steven Van Dyck I made a project of it here, they did send all that's needed for the PE. CVN-65 Enterprise | Album by StevenVD (1:400). The elevators seem to fit to the deck, but the base for the island has different dimensions. I'll try to measure up what would be correct. For the cover I just provide the dimensions to the store owner and in little more than a week it's tailored and I can go fetch it; but the production is outsourced to a Dutch company. Here is an example of my case for Zuikaku: Zuikaku | Album by StevenVD (1:350)
Zsolt Czegle I am very glad that you like the pictures! This way, those who did not have the opportunity to participate in the event in person can at least get a taste.
Johne 69 Thank you for your tip Skyhiker 👍 but when i start to correct the mistakes of this kit where does it end ? How did you rebuilt the air intake at your kit ?

Skyhiker It's been awhile since I finished this kit. I think what I did was separate part of the top half and put a styrene sheet in there. Here is a photo: P-51 D Mustang | Album by Skyhiker (1:72)
Sebastian Meyner With the 1:48 Thunderbolt done and dusted, I took my Yak-9 off the shelf of doom 🙂 my best work, but since I'm in a modelling mood these days, I try to put my current mojo to work 😉 I clear coated yesterday, started weathering the landing gear and just finished putting on the relatively few decals, that are actually used on this project. Let's hope I can keep up the pace 🤞

Sebastian Meyner Not my best work by a long shot, but at least I half-assed this one across the finish line 😉 A really nice kit with great fit, nice details and easy construction, thanks to some solid engineering by ICM.
Tom B. Definetly some well deserved prize(s) 👍 With the level of small scale work at Moson I don´t know if I´d dare to compete there... definetly will have to check the show out in the future though with all the 72nd-crowd apparantly being there!

Zsolt Czegle Thank you mates for your kind words! I really appreciate it!
Simon Nagorsnik I was able to marvel at it in nature at the show, it looks really great!
Really like the camo pattern style and the large Balkenkreuz is a good eye-catcher.
NLAWScametovisit Detailing with tamiya sea blue. I really started out trying to match Burns' aircraft at Truk, but honestly, the dark/light/dark/white almost dolphin or whale camo scheme just kept calling to me. I think I succeeded in visualizing something similar.

NLAWScametovisit As this project begins to wind down, i'm reflecting on a few lessons learned. One takeaway is the importance of puttying and sanding, and that its ok to be a little more heavy handed with it. Theres definitely some open seams and harsh angles visible (especially on the top of the fuselage) that I regret not taking more time to fill and sand down. Of course, maybe I'll just do it now and then repaint those areas...
