The deck had been glued on the hull. The decals had been set, and the deck was withered.

It is really difficult to use every part of Flyhawk's photo-etched product, because it is too fragile. Some parts were abandoned.
I spent 12-15 hours to finish the ship island part.

Based on historical photos, I added some pipes/wires that were made of soft tin wire. The real thing is too complicated to be 100% represented on a 1/350 scale. Then, why so serious?

The making of the starboard: some details of the outside electric wire were added by using soft copper wires. Of course, I needed an electric drill.

Well done. I built CVL-23 with WEM photo-etch but I think I left out these pipes. You can compare with my album: Princeton | Album by StevenVD (1:350) .

hi, Steven! I've seen your Princeton before I started my project, which is a great work and valuable reference for me. Hope I can finish this jumbo by the end of 2025. @Steven Van Dyck
