Thanks for the nice comments guys. Been busy doing minuscule work. I've been adding more etch and generally building up the towers. Had no major faults or parts missing. The Eduard instructions are very good but you do need to go between the them and then tamiya ones many times over and over to make sure you get them right.

Great progress on the sub assemblies Chris.

You right with the instructions i have taken to rferancing the etch instructions in the main kit instructions to help not miss anything, especially difficult if your using a big ed pack with several sets of instructions somtimes for the same part! Most annoying thing about Edward etch is no clue given to what to paint it. Not to much of an issue on ships generaly though.

Keep the pics coming

That looks really good and the railings just set the whole thing off so well.

Like the weathering as well you have added to the parts.

Loving all of the very neatly applied detail that you're adding to this build Mark, I think it will look stunning when completed.

Well done, keep up the good work. Drool ThumpUp

Thanks for the nice comments guys.

Here are the latest picture from this weekend. This camo pattern is tricky to keep it wrapping around correctly.

Excellent paintwork and weathering,you certainly haven't made life easy by going for this colour scheme Cool
Man he took his time in the sun
Had a dream to understand
A single grain of sand
He gave birth to poetry
But one day will cease to be

Hi all, been a while hope all are well in the circumstances. I have moved home and had to set up everything alongside getting an Xbox and getting addicted to Call of duty lol.

I have done a little more to this one so here are some pictures for you to look at.
