That is a awesome idea. I will do the mods to the 1/96 Delta III hull plug and change it into a Delta IV

Hi Tim
Your work as usual is Excellent! Your detailing is beyond belief, I bet you get orders when your ready to sell hulls. I like the tease picture of your future build.

George that Victor III will be 1/72. The Delta IV I am working on is the last 1/96 I do. Only future boat I am on the fence for either 1/72 or 1/96 is the Yankee II.

Thanks Matt. You don't know how many times I stood a watch on that turtle deck with a .45 pistol strapped to my hip on the Lincoln.
