Hi Chris
What can I say?… Wow!!! Tiger looks terrific, an absolutely outstanding achievement. I cannot adequately convey in this post all the admiration I have for this build, your dedication and skill has been on a truly epic scale.
I can hardly wait to see her afloat. With all the electronics working it certainly will be a spectacular sight for anyone watching. I look forward to seeing a video after her inaugural launch :thumb2:
Bravo sir!!!
All the very best

That really is quite simply outstanding. I think Paul tr1ckey66 has summed it perfectly. This - with the greatest respect to all the GREAT modellers on here - really is something exceptional.
Very, very well done indeed.
Also, sorry to hear that you've not been well, it's been hard to keep up as much as I would like, what with my studies!
All the best.

Well what can I add to the praise it's all ready had Chris !
Think one thing that is noteworthy is Jen, she has been great through all of the build, even when she was ill from her fall .
Don't think many wives would be as accomodating as her with having the house and garage taken over .
The build it looking good , bring on the figures please .
Glad you are feeling better .Comment

All the hard work is paying off Chris, she looks a beaut. After all the make up you're adding the trinkets and accessories like the crew.
Forgive me if I ask this, perhaps it's the angle of the shot but her keel is looking shallow making her looking top heavy. I'm not worried of how deep she will sit but more like capsizing on a sharp turn. Have you looked into that. I'm guessing you've addressed that with the ballast. Just concerned.
Looking forward to the launch and shake down.
Cheers,

Chris,
This is a truly outstanding build my friend. It shows your skills as a model maker and problem solver. You should be really proud of what you have achieved to create this masterpiece.Comment
