    What program did you use to create these rendered models? Would it be possible to get a sketchup model of them? Also, are the AC45's going to foil for the 35th AC?

    Hi Robert, made in Maxsurf with Sketchup renders,
    45s still floating, we'll see if they modified them.

    Would it be possible to get the sketchup renders? I'm interested in building a 1:25 and a 1:87 scale model (personal collection, not for sale).
