Trumpeter 1/700 HMS Hood

Sorry. An obvious senior moment while moving from photos to text.

Maybe a moderator could move it?
This belongs on thread 1/87 MKIV Beobach w/PE schurzen.

No worries Paul. Senior moments happen to us all.

Progress on the next superstructure level. Not difficult but a lot of masking and painting prior to fitting.

Hot weather, jobs around the house and "suggestions" from SWMBO have adversely affected progress. However the real slow down is the kit itself. Trumpeter have gone for the award for "The most tiny pieces in a kit"!

I've been working on the various superstructure sub assemblies.

This has 30 parts and still has a few pieces to add.

Just to show this has not been forgotten. I've been doing the odd bit now and again. Mostly loads of very tiny bits painted grey! Main guns are done.

I'll update when there is something worth seeing :D
 
Looking great Jim. Remember that it’s the gradual addition of tiny pieces that lift the whole build…….says the bloke what’s never built a boat 😁
