Thanks for the nice comments.
I have had my ups and downs with this as I am sure others have with their own builds at some point.
It is a great feeling when you start to see bits come together even when you know there is still months and months left to go on the build

Just a very small update, unfortunately I have not been getting too much time for modelling over the last couple of weeks as work has been getting the way as well as this beutiful weather that we have been having here in Wiltshire resulting in lots of family time. I installed the railings rond the entire hull now from the MK1 PE set as well as cut numerous parts off of sprues, cleaned up and dry fitted as can be seen in the 2 photos. I just need to prime the railings then the hull is ready for its paint, after which I will attache the wooden deck then put away in a box while I concentrate on the rest. Thanks for looking (Sorry for the large pictures but these were taken on my phone, for some reason I just couldnt get them smaller when resizing, will edit post if I manage to get them smaller)
