USS Lexington CV-2 (1:200)

Hello all,
I enclose a few photos to show my progress on the Lex. I built what amounts to a skeleton waterline model first including the flight deck. Since the deck is nice and flat (well sort of) it can be flipped over and the underwater parts put on. I an about half way through that process. This model is a brute, 4.5 feet long. Cutting out the 2mm card stock is tough. It hurts the fingers after a while. Other than that it's great fun.
