An i aggree with Rick crazy small :thinking: an id have a hard job fittin in R/C in it lol :smiling4: you must have some really good peppers (eyes) but how you have built this model is beyond me an it in my opinion should go into a glass case an into a museum as ive never seen a model with such detail in this scale you should be really proud of your self when this is finished an where you all are is this a model shop ? as i see no end of kits an there are tables as well so is this where you can sit an all build togeather ? an are your freinds all into ships ? sorry for all the questions but now i can see it properly i study pics

Hi Christopher, resting my eyes at the moment as the CA fumes have been irritating them. No worries, ask away...yes it's a model shop that allowed us to meet as long as we followed SOPs. The tables are for any group build displays or when new shipment arrives for viewing. Tables at the back are for group or night builds. Yes the group with me are ship builders or newbies that needed help.

Here are some more pics I took...



Mast not finished and painted yet.

Thanks John, the scale and super glue has taken a toll on my eyes so off to sleep for the night. No builds so far.

Cheers,
Richard

COR richard she lookin crackin an that is a crackin idea of that model shop letting you build in the shop an supplyin tables an chair's never seen that idea before as in my model shop all they want is your money an you are shown the door but that idea is great as you can meet others that are likeminded an you can talk about your builds pity there is none in the uk

Hi Richard
Wonderful work. I'm very impressed.
I have no doubt you will now enjoy some excellent food to get your figure back :thumb2:

I'm up,

Christopher, thanks, I guess space is at a premium in UK. With the current pandemic and social distancing means you need a wider space or limit the attendees.

Jim, thanks, it wouldn't be wrong if I say that I'm impressed with myself too. :smiling4: Regarding food, although tempted but my body has naturally been urging towards less sweet, salty and oily foods. The dreaded cream crackers have become tasty as well as porridge. :thinking: ...go figure? I'm suppose to train the liver but I guess its teaching the body a thing or two to work with it. :smiling6:

Cheers,
Richard

I am in COMPLETE awe. Seeing it next to you really puts it into scale. A simply stunning effort!

And all the best for a speedy recovery
