Take your time . I know you will do a unique job ther . Like it!
 
Never done a boat or a ship this looks very nice and promising to be a great build. I was given a titanic 7 Years ago and it's still in the box. Maybe one day I'll give it a bash. Keep up the great work.I look forward to more progress on this keep if coming.
 
Looks great!


I made this kit in about 1806, just after the battle of Trafalgar, and it definitely didn't come out looking like this :)


Cheers

drilled out the windows

Hi all a small update on this, The transom sticks out past the gallaries on the sides and I didnt like the way Airfix just moulded them flat so I've rounded the edges and reguilded them

also the grills on the prow are not moulded all the way through so I drilled all the holes out.
