Hi guys. Here are couple more pics. Have washed the white metal this time. The moulding of them is terrible. I always though white metal parts had better detail.
Cheers Chris

That`s coming on fine and looking at the way the deck is planned out, we have lots more good work to come.

Keep it up.

Hi Chris,
This is looking really great - love the colour contrasts and how crisp it is all looking.

Can you give a bit of advice about how you masked and painted the waterline? I'll be doing that soon on some other model I'm building and I'm already apprehensive about the task - I would love mine to look just as clean and straight as the one on your build!

Happy building :-)
