I’ve thought of that. May yet give it a go. Good ideas. Thanks.

The build looks really good, difficult to believe it's just a "simple" kit. The paintwork camouflage that very well!

Thank you, Kari. Total parts count: 40. about 25% of those were the deck cleats, capstans, etc. Not much to it. No railings, no torpedo door outlines, no anchors.....

Balls to that, don't put yourself down my man
If you saw my work up close you'd laugh your arse off - I'm just good at hiding it. If you could see the seam on the bottom of this Kiowa on the bench next to me you'd faint. I just can't be arsed to do anything about it.
