Looking good MikeBigGrin.
You are at about the same stage as myself. How did you find painting the small white metal bits? I found that for the primer to take I had to give them all a good rub down with some very fine wet and dry paper to remove any manufacturing residue.

ISSUE 70 AND 71

Hi this time I am putting some final touches to these issues, the photos should explain all, watch for the Port and Starboard additions to the centre deck and the 6 round dowal supports which will support the next deck (which believe it or not will cover all the detail I have just finishedBlink
