Hi all.
Thanks Tom,
I have made the cannons up for the top deck. They are not rigged yet just placed there. Also I have made a couple of pin racks or what ever they are called.
Chris.
On the bench 1/350 Revell Tirpitz Platinum Edition (Pontos PE and Wooden deck) plus extra Eduard PE set and extra MK1 door sets.

It's looking fantastic Magpie, I'm really amazed at the size of it, it dwarfs Victory. Truly stunning work. One thing I've learnt about this forum. There are some really talented model builders and craftsman here, and you are right up there with them. I will be starting to post my build log of Victory today, hope you will have a look-see? HMS Surprise! Now I want that model as well...  I soon won't have room, the lodger will have to go, at least they would if I had one.

Cheers Guys
I finished the Cannons this morning, so started on the Belfry area..
I made the bases from old carriages. This area is trial and error as I dont have any sizes to go off just the Jotika protype pics and the fact they are 15mm high.
