This is looking great so far Ole.

One little request though, could you post a photo of the carrier with something on or next to it so I can get an idea of scale (e.g. a paint pot or something similar)?

I know it's 1/350 but I don't know what that looks like in real life.

Is that a normal Tamiya Acrylic on top of it??

From the close ups of the ship and the planes/choppers I thought it was a lot bigger!

 

[mobear]
