I would do the Olympic Peter, a nice tribute to the three Olympic class liners. Looking very good, the planking looks superb and the paint seems to have settled well.

Looking forward to more.

After some eight months i have got the time to finish this one as i now have 95% pieces to finish properly the first thing to do is

strip off the old decking and replace with the nicer decks bearing in mind that the keel and bulk heads are scratch built but it all seems to fit without to much sanding.

Good work Peter, will look very nice once you finish the decking. Yeah, moggy looks as thought it has had enough, "No Pictures!"

[peterairfix]

Heres my next batch of pics all i am doing at the moment is cabin walls on the fore and poop decks there is a lot of formers used but the pics show it more better.
