Forget the ice. That much P/E calls for strength!
Bish, I commend you for not having a drink in so long. You got this man, I'm looking forward to seeing more.

Thanks Duke, it has needed some persaverance i know that much.
Giving up the drink wasn't to much of a chore, especially if it means more time and cash for the bench.

Only drink the good stuff for one or two drinks, then switch to the rotgut.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
Re: Revell 1/72nd S-100 Schnellboot
Quick update, this should be the last one before i wrap this up. I got the sides weathered with a very light oil wash and then sealed with a flat coat. I forgot to take a proper pic of the side but its very subtle. I then started fitting it out with the wood deck, railings and a few other bits.
And this is whats left to be added. Every thing has been painted, weathered and mat coated before fitting.
And the last bits to be put together were the torpedo's, quite a bit of work on these. the propellers on each one had 8 small PE blades.
And the CMK mines.
Just got to get those painted up and primed and make up the dodgers for the side rails.
