If you all want to see it, I will be happy to post it. The Olympia is a very historic ship and is the oldest steel hulled warship still afloat, plus it is a whole 30 miles away. The current configuration is rather different than it was when it was in the Spanish-American War.

Here is some history if you are interested: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Olympia_%28C-6%29 and this is the kit I will be doing: www.cybermodeler.com/hobby/kits/encore/kit_encore_85001.shtml

Great build of the Mallard Mike. Mine is currently awaiting paint, I hope that it comes out as nice as yours.

Here is my build of the Encore kit. It's a very nice kit and builds into a fantastic model:

Thanks, Mark! I will be referencing your Olympia build as I do mine. I hope I do as well as you did.
