Fire control - commands!

Target - enemy aircraft carrier!

Target - track!  

5 times - fire!


Each of us has a bit of a coastal artillery fire controller inside.

Maybe the lighting is intentional.

I don't believe those guns were meant to be used on the Essex class, except as a last ditch type thing.  They damaged the flight deck when they were fired.  (I may be wrong though.   )

Will the carrier have kill markings on the port side showing how many pilots auger into the stern per tour?  

Seriously, do you guys know if the Essex had catapults? It would be very cool if HTC modeled those  

It definitely looks awesome so far. Oh, it's gonna be a long two weeks.

On my work machine, the cv looks like a silhouette.  On Superfly's machine or on my home machine it doesn't.  At any rate, we've still got some detailing to do, mainly with the different gun positions.  The cruiser is also at the same state and we're starting on the LVT.

Dunno why.. but the picture looks a lot better in the news/announcements forum. You can actually see the carrier better.
