The PT Boat belongs to Garet. The fleet has taken 7 years to assemble and most of them in group builds.

And so it goes...

We currently add an Empire Cargo Liner to the list. Based on SS Explorer drawings posted by Marsh, the ship was very enjoyable to build.

All very nice Lou. But good grief please tell us poor mortals just where do you get the time!
Cliff.

I agree with Cliff! Do even sleep Lou?

Peter

Sleep walking, sleep carving, I wonder. Actually I am retired and this keeps me sane????? Without this group I would have cashed in long ago.

At least with sleep walking when a solid modeller you know where you have been during the night,just follow the trail of shavings !!
A great historical fleet Lou,they do look good.
Barry.

lastvautour

Thank you Barry. The misses always complains about that train of shavings making it to the living areas of the house. An that is without the sleep walking.

"Time" does seem to be a factor when it comes to solid model building as it applies to adequately replicating a real aircraft. However, Lou's secret of solving this problem - and which he has promised to reveal - will shortly take care of that! Very nice work on your fleet, Lou. It truly is a wonder to behold! Of course the next problem is: How or Where do we store such a number of ships? Nice job again, Lou!

Cliff.

lastvautour

Thanks Cliff. At 1/350 scale they do not take up much room (except for the carrier).

The Prestonian Class Frigates have joined the fleet. Close up photos of them will be placed in the proper post later tomorrow.
