Hello Jeff,
Any new updates? This ship is growing on me. Might have to save up and get a hull from Lee. Do you think you would make any of the etched items available for purchase?

Best Regards,
Sean

Hello Sean,
Yes.  Check out my post on general discussion.  I was busy getting my info to make sure I get this model right.  I will be making this for sale.  It's taken me a long time and lots of cash to make sure it comes out right.  Now that it's with the US Navy, I can finally make real progress.  Will be posting more photos soon.   Here is one of my models heli deck lights and heli bay area.  Remember, this is still a work in progress.

Enjoy,
Jeff

Here are some "dry dock" a.k.a. Kitchen Table images.   Smiley  There will be some edits to this as I need to remove/add parts.   Undecided   Hope you like it all so far.

Jeff,
Thanks for the updates. Keep me posted on any releases. Looking at either adding one of these or another Tico to my fleet. Can't decide. Cheesy

Best Regards,
Sean

Are the ventilation grills all over the exterior Laser etched or are these made by you?

Hello,
All of the ventilation grills are photo etched and made by me.  All the mesh areas can be seen through just like the real ship.

Awesome! Would love to have the space, or more importantly the skill, to tackle something like this. Who knows... maybe the future!

Here are some photos of the well deck.  The well lights up when the gate opens.  One is with flash and one without.  I detailed the interior of the well deck itself but not so much on the top sides.  The ceiling is plastic tube and structural beam going across the beam.
