Looks fab, not sure if you have seen this website but helpful if you want to improve the accuracy, such as the missing signalmans sheters on the forward superstructure.

Build is so much fun to watch

Hi Chris,looking fantastic.Like the way the plastic and etch blend seamlessly once painted.
Man he took his time in the sun
Had a dream to understand
A single grain of sand
He gave birth to poetry
But one day will cease to be
Greet the last light of the library...We were here!

Cheers guys
Here I have painted the decks on the Tower but they look yellowish from the camera. I will then glue the components together with the steps in place. Its finally getting bigger.
