Excellent work. What make are the models? |
| boy wundyr x | 03 Nov 2016 7:57 a.m. PST |
Very nice stuff, love the Enterprise! |
| Grignotage | 03 Nov 2016 7:58 a.m. PST |
Fantastic stuff, thanks for posting. |

The are from Superior and GHQ, I also have some from Seabattle and Sea Wulf that I will post once I have put them on their Stands like the ones you see in the photos. The aircraft on the Clemenceau are scratch built by me although they may be a little on the large side, they were a first attempt by me at that scale. I am currently working on USS Iowa (1990 GHQ version), Russian Kiev Carrier, Russian Baku Carrier both from Superior. and HMS Hermes from Sea Wulf. Photos will be posted as and when I complete them. |

What is the emblem on the right corner of the Enterprise base? |
| SeaKing2016 | 03 Nov 2016 9:49 a.m. PST |
The Emblem is the ships crest, which I have don with some but not all of the other U.S. ships. |

Thanks for sharing these SeaKing! I never seem to get tired of admiring others' work; it's always inspiration for picking up the paint brush! "The aircraft on the Clemenceau are scratch built by me" Oh my giddy aunt! Nicely done there mate! Nick |
| Mako11 | 03 Nov 2016 12:00 p.m. PST |
Looks great! Love the aircraft coming in for a landing too. That's a nice touch! |
| Outlaw Tor | 03 Nov 2016 12:18 p.m. PST |
Ah, wondered as it is different from the one I knew when serving on her. link I think you got the Carrier Strike Group emblem there… |

| SeaKing2016 | 03 Nov 2016 1:57 p.m. PST |
You are right it is the Carrier Strike Group Emblem, I never noticed it before, so will try and change it at some point. For now though it will stay as is :-) |

Great work! Hope mine will be half that good. |
| Bozkashi Jones | 03 Nov 2016 3:15 p.m. PST |
it's a gift that keeps on giving! what's giving you the cool ripple effect SK? Is that watercolour paper or similar? |

Hi Bozkashi Jones, The water is actually plastic card made by Plastruct, which comes in very light blue colour, and I painted grey under it to give it a darker colour, and white for the sea foam. |

Excellent models, SeaKing. It's impressive that you've even added the antennas. Those details on the planes and of course the sea effect also contribute to the beauty of the whole vessel. My favorite is the FNS Clemenceau – one just doesn't see the modern French ships so often in this scale. Looking forward to seeing more. Cheers,

Great work! Thanks for sharing. Is the Enterprise the 1981 or 1985 version? |
| SeaKing2016 | 13 Nov 2016 9:01 a.m. PST |
Hi Pericles311, The Enterprise model is the 1981 version, so tried to paint it as it was in 1981. Not perfect but hope it captured the effect nicely. |
says he's pretty happy with these babes...
