Hi Benny personal choice,preferences,etc, seperates the sheep from the lambs Makes your interpretation different from others therefore unique/different Great build

i've done it my way as well benny. as i've mentioned before, there seem to have been so many changes and refits to the actual ship that unless you pick a certain time in victories history and stick to that version, you will always end up with a combination of colours and parts that may or not have been on the ship at the same time.............if you get what i mean. you only have to look at the pictures on the front covers to see that there are differences between it and the actual magazine build. Come on you Jimmies

hi all i have been playing with the companionway i changed the columns because the 4 i received were all different,and i put a 5x2 square block in the corners for the columns to sit on and i distressed the hand rail slightly to give a bit of wear cheers benny
