HI Rick cheers for your kind comments its these that keep me goin after all the sad news an such an yes these bridges an the consoneles an lights inside have been very tricky an to top that the window wipers were right little buggers as when i was makin them they kept breakin must have made 50 or more but hopefully its all comin togeather an now ive got to find the nav lights up
all the best to you chris
HI Jim sorry i dint reply to your post as somehow i missed replying as i like to an yes she is looking big an im really pleased with how things are goin on her but still a lot to do but soon i'll fit all the ship togeather to see what ive got so far
ATB to you sir

HI Paul windscreen wipers were not fun to make little buggers as they kept breaking so must have made about 50 odd to get enough to fit to all bridge windows an yes im looking forward to building the gun turrets but its gonna be hard as on these gun turrets there are so many angles esp the big 6inch gun turret an that will take a fair time to make as i will have to draw out some drawings of all angles so i dont have to keep referring to the plans all the while as they are so big but the work goes on till the nxt update but today im fitting on the navigation lights leds an they are 3mm leds two on each side an they will be very bright so they can be seen in daylight
cheers for lookin in Paul

HI ALL well just a few pics to show im still on the build an i thought id see how i would get on fitting the phot echt brass railing an they are all indevigual posts with brass 1mm brass rod fittted through the holes in the stantchions an half are painted grey an the rest still in brass an there should be ladder fitted up where the gap is but that will be fitted when i can find the ladders 
an i then jumped to fit on the nav lights an yes they are very bright as they need to be seen in daylight on the pond an im not that keen on where they are fitted but thats where they were on the real ship but should look better when i put on the S/S
