Very nice! Your work on the limber holes is meticulous, and the etched-brass pieces are gorgeous. It looks like you're managing to achieve in 1/144 scale what many fail to do at twice that size.

Superb work!

Amazing! I've only done U-boats in 1/350, and never had any success with weathering - you're a master!

Today I did very important color accent - Lifebuoy
