Hehehe...when we were kids on the ranch we would glue in compartments to give them more water tight integrity, and then take them down to the creek and plink away at them with 22s and 4-10s.

But now, when I do all the electrical work to light the hangar deck and build the details into the deck...no way am I going to “blw them up.”

Anyhow, I like building entire Carrier Strike Groups and Marine Exidionary Units, or ARGS at least.

I would glue extra sheet plastic on the inside of tank models while building and then plink at them with my BB gun. It taught practical lessons in why to slope tank armor.

Awesome build, Jeff, mind-boggling, really. Thanks for sharing all the detail.

“....no way am I going to “blw them up.”

Perhaps you could add a bunch of Iranian swarm attack boats, each of them with a built in lady finger or similar, all wired together....
