Wow, this is coming along very nicely Andy. Definitely well worth the detail work on the clipboard, doc holder, fire extinguisher and the light. They will add something special to an already awesome build.

I agree with Joe, those small details really add to the model

Thanks Guys. When you build at this scale you need lots for the observer to look at, nice little details make a world of difference.

Cheers

Just caught up on this one Andy and some great work. Like what's already been said about the additions is true great work on the clipboard,fie extinguisher and spot light and that motor looks the bees knees I hope it's not too powerful

Day 43

Time to put together some brass and make the ladders that make it easy getting in and out of the boat for the divers. First of all I had to decide how I wanted it to look and work. There had to be ladders over the side to make it practical and these would need to be retracted at times so I came up with a hinged idea. See what you think...

Everyday is looking better and better Andy!

The finish outboard looks very well, and the most important...useful :)

Day 51

Time to complete this rear end. Here you will see I fitted the outboard guard and finished painting the cones.

Still a few bits to add yet before the divers go on-board so don't run away just yet.

Outstanding build Andy, love the way this one has come together, are you going to fit a prop guard.

Thanks guys. I haven't thought about a prop guard. I will have to research them and have a look.

Cheers
