1/144 RC U.S.S.Nimitz

I read Nimitz in the title and "The Final Countdown" was the first thing that came to mind. That's actually one movie I WOULD like to see Hollywood remake. I loved that movie as a kid and got hooked on the Jolly Rogers (VF-84) tomcats from that point on. Loved seeing them go into the low-viz scheme, then was bummed to see them disbanded, but ultimately happy to see their tail symbol resurrected in the F/A-18's.

Great job on the ship model. I think seeing the rotors spin on the helicopters would bring it to life and maybe putting a smoke generator or two below the catapults to simulate the steam coming off them.

Thanks ED-209. I've actually thought about both of those things. Someone else did their choppers rotors and it did look awesome ! Might be beyond my own capabilities . Sorry about the late reply but have been without a computer for a while and am just now learning how to do this on my iPhone for now. No money for computer or hobbies as I hit a deer in my Corvette and have parts to buy to get her back on the road !
