    Bit more to the layer cake, the awning stanchions and the boat booms. I know it kinda looks messy, but to the naked eye it's not that bad.
     
    Next will be the torpedo net booms.

    Big guns attached to the deck. I have decided to completly re do the 47mm and 37mm, as I'm just not happy with them. There is plenty to do in the meantime.

    Now to the Davits. They are a layer cake construction making them thicker. They have tiny little brackets to attach them to the hull. The rigging was replaced once I constructed them with Ezyline. Some bits are still hanging loose which i will place rope coils at the ends. There are two resin ones as well which sit behind the bridge. All 4 of them were broken on the resin fret when I opened the box and had to be repaired.

    Ok, the last of the railings are complete. Given it is soo tiny, it just takes ages to thread these needles.

    Slow plod, I have added the stanchions for the stern, bow and amidships. They come with a 0.1mm copper wire which does not blacken well and does not run as well as a 0.01mm rigging line. My eyes hurt this is so small now. 2 hours to do the bow. To the naked eye it looks great compared to the etch railing.
