Very nice display. I really like the Cutlass. I'm curious about the carrier deck as well.

to make a long story short it was a lot of work...
...the first idea was to paint it by hand on wood panels, which I dismissed pretty quickly...
...then I was looking for a hi quality photo of the deck, no luck either...
finally I scanned the deck of an old 1/600 scale Airfix kit. The to scans I put together with a paint program and started to colorizing it. Then it was plotted on plastic foil...
