I don't think ill try anything this big again lol its a nice kit to build but you have to make sure you have enough room to build it , I must have knocked thhe rudders off five times :laughing:

only real problem I had was attaching the decals to the conning tower they go under a railing if I had known that in the begging I would have attached them first then the railing.

also I think I got carried away with the weathering its such a big area you can get to close to the project but im happy with it and enjoyed it.

now I just need to find a place for it !
