I'd say she's shaping up nicely there, mate - and yeah, painting and decaling all those airplanes is definitely the most tedious part of building an aircraft carrier. I may never do another one! (yeah, right ...) I like that color you picked out for your canopies - after hand painting almost 40 1/700 aircraft for my flight deck, I decided that the clear canopy effect really wasn't worth the effort.
I can't remember, what year or cruise are you modeling your creation after?
