I have the same problem here, and the "name" tag doesn't work either.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

Yes and no. I know how to, but I didn't have a lot of time last night and just pasted them into a rich text window. I didn't go back and link things up the way I normally do when posting links with different text. Most forum software is smart enough that any http URL pasted is automatically turned into hypertext, but I guess either Kalmbach got the one piece of software that doesn't, or they disabled it.

Tracy, did you post them using the "Use rich formatting"?

I'm from the government and I'm here to help.

Plenty of Chatter and built-ups, just a lot more build-ups in 700th scale:

Yes,I'm looking into the LPD -21. Thanks for the info on the reviews. Sounds like the Bronco edges out the Gallery kit.Next would be getting a kit at a decent price as it sounds like some after market parts will be required.

I'm surprised there isn't much chatter on this model !!

I built another bronco model, my first, the pre-dread Ting Yuen.

It was a very very nice kit.

Hull numbers might help the search, "USS New York" having been a gun gondola; a frigate; an armored cruiser, a battleship, a submarine, and now, a San Antonio-class amphibious ship.

Will guess you mean either SSN-696, or LPD-21--as a kit of BB-34 would have all the BB-35 USS Texas fans buying them in scores.
