I am awaiting some more tape so I can do the Black strip. magpie1832 attached the following image(s): On the bench 1/350 Revell Tirpitz Platinum Edition (Pontos PE and Wooden deck) plus extra Eduard PE set and extra MK1 door sets.

Quality work from you there Chris, all very neat and tidy and I have to say, I didn't realise how big this model was before seeing your photos? That's an impressive model!
Nice job.

Very nice Chris, you must be excited at finally getting past the basic construction and painting of the hull and can now look forward to adding all the superstructure and all that lovely detail that goes with it? Well done mate, looking good and beautifully neat and tidy as well!!
