                        Got a 1/350 Hornet with B-25's coming and would like to have some crew on deck, the tower and around the planes...any suggestions for a good source?  This will be the first ship of any type I've done in a very long time so I'm sure I'll loose some eyesight after doing all the small stuff on this kit. 

                        Thanks for any info.

                        Chris

                        Gold Medal Models and Tom's Modelworks have 1/350 figures.

                         Eduard makes 350th figures that are in color. I have two sets of there modern carrier deck crew for my NIMITZ. They look great and theres no way I could have painted that good.
                        Cluster bombing from B-52s is very, very accurate. The bombs always hit the ground.

                        Thanks for the replies, figures have been found.  Sounds nice Viper0177, have you completed this build yet?

                        Well, I have some crew and the ship and about 20 B-25's just came in the mail so I guess I'm about ready to get this beast going.  What's the best source of info (besides you guys of course) for info on weathering, rigging, etc...?  Since I got a great deal on this kit I think I will go for some after-market.

                        Oh yea, I need an F4F and an SBD for this too and have an extra B-25 to trade if anyone can spare the two.  I don't want to have to buy complete sets if I don't have to.  Couple pics I've seen you can see these planes in open doors on the side so I would like to replicate it.
