That's some of the best planking I've seen!  Well done indeed and a credit to your skills. You could slap a coat of varnish on that hull and she'd sail off across the nearest pond!  Lovely build in progress - keep them coming!

I have to agree with the comments above the hull planking is perfect  “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”

At this stage, before I go any further, I think it's time to give her her make-up.I go for the natural look and hope it work fine for her. The upper halved is cover with Matt Finish. The lower halved with Shellac. yzwong attached the following image(s): Current build - D51 locomotive

Yzwong Your doing an absolutely top job on that build of yours. Lots of things delaying me with my hobbies but at some point I will get back to them. I really do admire the builders that can produce such brilliant results and yours will be a great build. Are you planning to paint your modelling ? Really enjoying your build - keep up the great work Kind regards Tony Happy Modelling
