my son has completed two ships so far. the missouri and arizona, I helped him some on them, but he finished them each in 2 days. so you can imagine how 'great' they look .. lol. after he was done I went through and cleaned them up for him. I would post pictures of them, but he gave them to his grandfather, my dad. My dad builds WW2 tanks.
I am hoping that my detailed work will inspire him to take his time also, but I am sure he gets bored when he sees that I take 3 days to glue, putty, sand and paint just the tires.. lol.
I hope to post tonight with some updates of the engines. I'm still debating how much work to put into them, since they may not be visible once inside the 'pods'.
thanks for the kind comments.
*ps: let me know if there are any specific pictures of areas of the model that you would like to see. now that I'm using my good camera I should be able to get good shots.
