:heh: The decree was made thus it shall be done. :big_grin: It's a team build between Cliffy and me. With the ideas we have thrown around I personally think Cliffy's is going to look so cool. The concept was so much fun that I contributed some of my custom resin pieces for him. I won't spoil the details of his project, but she is going to be fantastic.

I actually misplaced it for a few months and just recently found it buried in a model box. I'm glad Dave is in Japan or he'd probably kill me for that :big_grin:
I deserve it for botching the hull number.

Cliffy-B great thread...

Any thoughts of using a single island like a LHA/LHD would allow more electronic and weapons... would require more scratch building...

The thread is still there :big_grin: http://www.shipmodels.info/mws_forum/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=51703

Long story short, its on the back burner until after the new year. I was going to start on it in January but NavyDave has decreed that I have to build my proposed DDH version of a Burke before I do anything else so we'll see :big_grin: Dave did finish painting the flight deck and it looks great save for the botched hull number (thanks to the tape failing grrrrr....). I'll put up a shot of that soon. I actually misplaced it for a few months and just recently found it buried in a model box. I'm glad Dave is in Japan or he'd probably kill me for that :big_grin:

So yeah, the project is not dead, just on hold for a little while longer :thumbs_up_1:
