Great Job. Very nice suttle weathering. I always love the Floatplanes and Flying boats.

Thanks.
Any chance of seeing some pics of your new F18 ? I have Academy 1/48 F14 in the stash waiting to be built next year.

I don't exactly have a way of posting pics at this time, however I can email some pics...
Though I am a little confused with this model...it's the Revell F/A-18-E (85-5850/ for those who have built it may know?) in the instructions, it shows the decals has USS NIMITZ above the Navy, but it didn't have that on the sheet, no problem though, however, I do have 3 decals on the sheet that is NOT in the instructions, and I can't find a possible place for them.... I dont know.

It's quite easy. You could upload all your pics to any photo hosting sites ( I use photobucket all free), then reference/share your pics here (click on Img button) or anywhere on the internet.
I have not built any F18 yet so have no ideas about its decals. Maybe a quick google would help ?

The jets look nice. The sunlight makes the pics a bit too bright to see the detail. I'm sure the pics will look much better if they are darker a little bit.
