Afternoon all here's where I am at I have finished the hull along with the many portholes and with the first coat of paint.


And I have completed all the cabin walls on the promenade deck and next up will be the boat deck

Hello all here,s how we are going on this one, i have finished all the boat deck buildings and have finished the promenade deck side's but still have to trim and fit them.


And i have started the four funnels I will only show the one,all I have to do is trim them to size and sand and filler if needed.

I have found some time to do a bit more.


This time i will be putting together the crane's and as they are all made the same way I will only show the one, the top pic are the parts and the bottom is the completed one minus the paint and wire.


And a ruler to show how small the parts are.

I have got the cranes finished and in place.


And i am now starting on filling in with all the deck fittings\railings  and will be going from bow to stern.
