The committee here at Race Towers have made a unprecedented decision to award the Dogs even before this is finished. This is a truly great build , showing great skill.
Congratulations Mon Ami.

Just caught up again Greg, outstanding job so far. Loving the build.
Dear all...here is today's update on the ship...well l prepared the platforms for the 5 inch guns guess what??.... huge gaps....sooo more work... :smiling5: :smiling5: :smiling5: :smiling5: :smiling5:
Not too much was done today..only a couple of separation walls...enjoy
Quality takes time - a lot of time :hungry:
It all adds to the effect Greg.
Why is the fit so bad? Shouldn't have left the factory for sale. The gaps are huge. Very RC standard of molding. But you're doing a heck of a job on it Greg. I've been wearing sunglasses since you started on the bling. :smiling6:
Cheers,

Dear all thank u again for your kind comments..l placed the 2 platforms...and the elevator pit...l tried some dark colors that will be a good base for the airbrushing..l noticed some imperfection that l will correct..enjoy
Dear all today's update was: filling the gaps and correcting kit's mistakes...plus adding the support for the 5 inch guns...enjoy

Hi Greg
You're doing a great job and show a lot of patience. Some of those gaps are pretty big :rolling:

Hi Greg, remember to have all edges sharp and detail as straight as possible or else all the detail work would have been wasted. I have trouble keeping my detail as crisp as if molded sometimes preferring the molded part than the PE. All looking good so far.

Sterling work there Greg, looking very nice indeed.
Pity about the gaps though, but you are doing a cracking job of repairing them.
