Great work! :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout: I’m really loving the flight deck weathering! Subtle yet quite visible… the perfect balance. Now get that air wing on board. :wink:

Thanks all!

I am calling the Invincible done. Tested out the photo booth I got for Christmas to finally get some uncluttered views, even if it is a tad small for the project I really like using it:

It could use a couple more Harriers, but they only included 4, and one of them has a busted wing so I left it off. I will just pretend the others are out on operations.

I must move on to the next build anyway!

Or it went down in the Mediterranean just like the F-35 did… :whistle: :giggles:

Seriously, she looks good!

Thanks for looking all! It was a fairly fun build, it has been forever and a day since I built a carrier so I may indulge in another in '22.
