BigGrin Hi All
Some more progress with the hull .
The painting of the hull is now finished using Tamiya's Hull Red and good old Kure Grey.
After the paint was dry I added the wood deck components to the hull sill some fittings to be added but gives a good impression of the finished item.

BigGrin Hi All
Progress has been slow as iv been making up ,painting and adding decals to the three Sierans that were stored in the sub hangar and also the bonus Sieran on a display stand with torpedo's that is part of the special edition set.
Small and fiddly work here , the decals took me a day to apply and the canopy decals just wouldn't have fitted but for the use of good old micro set/sol but im relatively happy with the results.
regards

BigGrin Hi All
The three Sieran's have now been mounted to the deck plate and the placed into the hangar tube and the main bridge components put together there is still a load of etch to be added in this area.
The lower masks to drill holes for the railings have been cut out and stuck down on the main hull to enable the drilling of these holes.
More soon

BigGrin Hi All
Some more progress ,The upper wood decks were added and the mask's used to drill the holes. the guns were then added to the bridge/hangar area after fixing in place.
Then its a case of adding the etch some of which is seriously tiny working from the centre of the model and adding to guns and fittings around the bridge .All the upper railings and ladders are now finished just some hand irons to fit in parts then its the rest of the railings to go on.
More soon
