hi everyone, I have finally finished this section... though it has taken me an age and more! please ignore the clamps but I am re-sticking the flooring after a little damage...mostly due to over-handling. next up will be painting and refitting the lantern that have dropped off throughout this phase... no points for finding them but I can see at least 4 missing and may well be in the hoover by now.. but I have boughts some spares for this very reason. looking forward now to the next phase that will be very quick in comparison to this.

Thanks very much Dave... it does seem that I spend nearly as much time refitting things as I do building at the moment  but hey ho... on to the painting... I have subscribed to the victory....(yes..I will be subjecting you all to another Victory build soon lol) but they very nicely gave me a magnifying glass on a stand... which doubles as a very good scriber block... keeping my lines nicely straight all of the way around Pinks666 attached the following image(s): Happy Modelling

thank very much everyone... glad to hear you are all still enjoying this. I have had another good run at it today, quite a lot completed.. painted the hull below the water line and also added the strips for the 2 lines above... one cheat did with this one was to not just use wood glue as I could not pin. instead I used half inch strip of super glue... along with a 6 inch line of wood glue... this let the superglue hold firm whilst the wood glue dried, but means I will not just have brittle super glue holding these on.
