          This is turning into an epic build, very evious of your building skills.

              Plating looks good. Onto the more interesting part of the build.

                    Aha! you went with the latest research and used the buff instead of the yellow.
                    I seem to remember some think it was pink!
                    even if it was I think that would look terrible

                      Neil that pic is a bit misleading it's actually yellow ochre from naval dockyard I'll try and get a better one with better light

                        The colour is a real discussion point. A rabbit hole you don't want to go down. Your model is looking superb.

                          A bit fiddley but one side done after the port side will get on to the hold grates and stairs/ladders then the guns are started
