Apart from that- a good effort.

I think Siara is right:

Apart from that it looks great, I like especially the weathering of your model.

Thank you all for the compliments. I was not sure about the deck gun but did know when she was sunk did not have one. I could not find any info on whether or not she was fitted with one initially or not. I decided to go with the deck gun taking a chance on not being historically accurate 100%.

Thank you all again for the compliments. Once the rigging is up I will try and get better photos and post them.
