Not at all Trev, love watching your builds and this one is looking just as good as the rest of yours!! Loved watching you do the Gallery furniture on your Victory build by the way, very nice job there. I shall follow this with interest as I thought of doing it myself, but I think there are actually better Victory Cross-Section models than the DeAgostini offering for less money and with more detail I'm afraid, though I am sure you will do some more of your excellent scratchbuilding on this one as well to bring it up to standard!! Keep the posts coming Trev??
All the best,
Bernie

Hi Mark, How's your Victory going all ok I hope,again thank you for looking at my new post.Mark I found building the frame's easy!but you have to keep them pinned down other wise they could tend to twist.I hope you may take this build up at some point Mark I know you are very busy with Victory at the momment.
