Coming along nicely Mark, the brass etch work will be pivotal in the appearance so at that scale you should be onto a winner

Painted the false bow and wave but will have to make a slight alteration as misjudged as to how far the false bow came out

BossMark · 11-26-14, 07:51 AM

Masking and painting the black and white camouflage stripes on the hull, pictures to follow.

After a few minor tweaks on the painting, next will be the fitting of thw wooden deck

Wooden deck in place, with the recognition markings painted apart from swastika (As yet)

All I have been able to do today is fix the lower part of the superstructure, due to it being very dark all day (no light through the windows been a very poop day in Leeds) And I dont like working in artificial light.

Slow work but hopefully more pictures later on tomorrow.
