As I promise here it is what I have done till now.

In the beginning the project was to do the LHD-1 USS Wasp, but at the end I decide to do the LHD-8 USS Makin Island, due the WIP of darthpanda & MitcheLL300 on the LHD-2 USS Essex that is more closer as apparel to the LHD-1 that to the LHD-8.

Maybe somebody else from this will do the LHA-6 USS America...

But here it is my WIP till now that I'm going to sleep (Italy 01:35 a.m.)... ... ...

It are Chilean FAC from Isreali orgin with Gabriel IIA missiles + 2x 7.6 and the 25mm is just behind the many mast! and on the bridge she could carry 12.7 or 7.62 calls

A very good start, I'm looking forward to this ship. I agree with Alex on that propeller, its so damn ugly I wish fokl would'nt use it.
Very nice details on the hull.
