Very nice work. Can't wait to see what else is being worked on in your worklist :-)

Well, I've got the USS Newport and USS Terror in a sort of limbo and I'm working on the USCGC Aspen and USCGC Fir

Anyone planning these guys (from Wikpedia)?

Fifteen LSTs of what were later to be known as the Terrebonne Parish-class were constructed in the early 1950s. These new LSTs were 56 feet (17 m) longer and were equipped with four, rather than two, diesel engines, which increased their speed to 15 knots (28 km/h). Three-inch 50-caliber twin mounts replaced the old twin 40-millimeter guns, and controllable pitch propellers improved the ship's backing power. On 1 July 1955, county or, in as known in the case of Louisiana, parish names were assigned to many LSTs, which up to then had borne only a letter-number hull designation.

I did the LST-1165 Washoe County, the 9th ship in the class. It's in the archive.
Speaking of which, I'm still looking for a drawing of the Talbot County class LST.
