A6-E,Jason do you mind if i sent her to you without painting the galleys? I'll place everything you need inside the hanger bay. I'll post photos of what I'm sending to you later today.

Mardis, you went way above and beyond the call. The ships you built are absolutely stunning. Seeing these final pics of the Ranger and Indy, I am speechless!!! I'm gonna be waiting at the mailbox like a kid waiting for Santa :big_grin:

Great Job, Mardis!! :thumbs_up_1:

I'll be looking foreward to also seeing your future builds, along with John's Forrestal and Ed's Ranger. :wave_1:

Your welcome guys! Ed I found the instruction for the gmm 1/540,i'll send that with Ranger. Now remember guys these are made of papercard,paper, cardstock. They are gonna need a second coat of paint. uae a small hand held hair dyer to bake the paint in. Use all the info you can on your builds,some of the parts are not right. But a of models are not. This is the last posting on this thread (maybe). So to all 3 of you post as much as you can. I want to see what some one can do with my builds. :heh:
