Thank you Portman, sorry I missed your post.

I added the aft superstructure port PE. I'm almost done with step 1.

That rear superstructure looks mighty good so far!

Thanks Stick,
Finally done with step one. I attached the superstructure to the deck so I will have less of a chance of breaking anything off.

Since this is a build review I have to give it a try. I asked for it LOL.

Yes you did, just as I asked for the twin Tomcats with all their P/E too. You have shown with those outstanding superstructure sub-assemblies that you surely have the skills to make all that P/E look magnificent. Way to go!

Step 2 completed. I've already completed step 4 and 5 assembling the hull so the next step will be 6, the fore superstructure, and I also need to assemble the PE mast. Step 3 is the assembly of the small boats and helo so I will do that later.

Nice work! My eyes wouldn't be able to cooperate if I tried doing that scale.

It is tiny. I won't complain about PE anymore.

Beautiful work with the tiniest photo-etch, Steve! Truly incredible job of patience and persistence in all you do. I am taking notes on your base design for future projects; really stunning to see how the colors shift to create the impression of moving water!!

Thank you Bruce,
I have always been fascinated with water dios. I searched the internet for a few months trying to figure it out. This process works for me but I keep tweeking it.

That is impressive work. I did not realize that 1/700 scale was like this nowadays.
