boatman's 1/72 HMS Tiger C20 build

[boatman]

The chain drilling looks to be successful, well done. Now comes the real fun of squaring them all up, very tedious but rewarding when you stand back and take it all in. Whats next after you cut in the bridge doors? Rick H.

HI Rick yes chain drillin went ok an all the windows are now squared up to what they show in the plans so I can do the doors tomorrow then you say what next ? you got me there boyo as there is loads to do on this S/S an I havnt planned that far ahead yet I think it may be the rasied sections on the main bridge S/S at the rear as they are small boat mountin on these but if I build them I will leave one side open for now as I want to run some wirein through them for the ship's floodlightin LED's to illuminante the bridge S/S when she is on show at an exhibition show how's that an thanks for lookin in
