Really want to watch this process. I haven't built a ship since I was a kid (though I have a stalled Titanic on the bench). Hope you can walk through the phases of horizontal vs vertical and masking for my benefit

You got it John.
The proper way is to assemble and paint the sub assemblies first as well as paint the hull and deck prior to adding the PE. I just wanted to try something different.
I started adding the deck color.

It's looking great, not that many different colors on a modern ship.

Thanks Floki
Picture update. The haze gray is on. I still have to to touch up the haze grey in several places as well as the black then do some minor weathering.
In the mean time I am going to start on the North Carolina.

Looking real good in the grays. What colors are you using for the Haze Gray and Deck Gray?
