Description
The “Gray Lady” CV-2 Lexington prepares to depart New Port News shipyard in 1938. The triple steam expansion engines will prove to be problematical for the use of these battle-cruisers that were completed as aircraft carriers in WWII. The engines were noisy and made it easier for submarines to find these 880 foot wonders from the early days of naval aviation.
Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? (James 3:11)

Amazing scene here, very impressive ship and mood, congratulations!
this is great. the old girls had problems, for sure, but they did get the job done. fantastic image..
TSE? I would never have guessed that technology was used for a high-speed warship. Oh well. Neat image.
Wonderful work,
Excellent image. Love the sunset. Corrie
It's AliceFromLake. Nice portrayal of the golden years of naval aviation.
Great scene and info, good to see a posting from you again.. Excellent work!!
I don't know the answer to your question.... I know the gators are fresh water and have been spotted in salt... they probably don't live long though - lol I think that bomb is bigger than the plane, I'd hate to be on the carrier when it lands = lol
Good one RG.
Nice render. I just feel like the colors could be warmed up a bit.
Did you make the dry docks yourself?
The Image is a bit static ...but the details are swell
Superbly realisation my friend!!!Bravissimo!V:DDD.Hugsxx Whylma
Tend to agree with Django above. As for the size of the "Bomb," which is actually a torpedo, I think it is the proper size. Those babies were big and long.
An interesting naval scene. Nicely composed.
Magnifique travail, une scène qui nous replonge sur la dernière guerre
