    VERY well said Tim as thats what i think also but thanfully my small parts on my tiger are big enough to fit them without bein tediuos

        Going to have to go over the manual from the start I probably missed loads :smiling3: and of course the dreaded railings

                  Sorry for lack of interest, not to well.

                  Excellent build Brian, the build puts my efforts to shame. Quick and well detailed,

                  so glad I turned down the suggestion to build my yamato at the same time as yours.

                          Looking mighty fine.
                          The rails will be fine they're the easy bit. It's the rigging the real bugger.

                              Beautiful job so far Brian. I will definitely do 1/200 if I ever do a floaty as the detail is excellent.
