Siara, if you don't want to enter in a competition is OK, but maybe you could think to present your "work of art" in an model exposition, it would be an opportunity for us to admire "in live" your model; pics are excellent, but notining can substitute the real thing.
If you decide to do it I will thank for ever...

I will make research about model shows in London area, and maybe i will enter when is done. :up:

I dry fitted the railing to the deck:

Im one happy man.:rock:

can't wait to see the detail you put into the deckgun.

Heck...make it able to swivel and elevate the gun. That'd be crazy.

Still looking awesome as ever, and definately go with what Faamecanic said in his post about posting your work in Fine Modeller. Heck you could make up most of the issue with what you've got here :rock::up:

Haha, yeah, here we are drooling over railings and wires when the deck and flak gun[s] have yet to be put in! :lol:

Hi Siara,

if you use tracing paper for the sketches, you could use the same sketch for the mirrored part by simply turning over the sheet of paper.

Cheers,
Michael

Both railings are finished. I completed the loops for chains also.
