Most of us would say, "She's just about finished", and a fine job. But I know you still have the inside. Can't wait.

Hi everyone and thanks for all of your comments and Likes. Much appreciated.
Just a quick update. I've added the radars and some more details to Shadow's mast. In addition, I've also added the tall mast which is situated on Shadow's foscle. Lastly, I've been doing some more painting and puttying on her superstructure and rear diving platform.
Lots more work to go, though.
I hope you enjoy the photos, folks.
Have a great week!
Cheers
Patrick

Hi everyone
Well, Shadow's journey has been going slowly lately due to our house being painted. However, I've managed to work on her a little; so much so, that I've fashioned her three radar domes and antenna mast which are located on the top of the Sun Deck. At the rear of the main deck, I've added the twin staircases which lead from the deck above to the rear diving platform at the transom.
Still bucket loads of work, painting, puttying, etc, etc, etc (you know the drill )...
BTW, everything's still loosely placed in their respective locations; that's why they look a tad wonky!
All the best!
Cheers
Patrick

Thanks Laurence!
There's still plenty more to add, but it should look pretty spiffy when she's ready for launching

Very nice work Patrick! She looks great on the water! Too bad she won't float when you're done, though I personaly wouldn't float any model of mine unless it was rc, I'd be too scared !

Thanks Carl. My initial choice was going to be red, but I thought that Shadow deserved something a bit more special. So, silver it was.
No regrets, that's for sure!
Cheers

Patrick, most of us would say it's just about finished, and a lovely boat she is. But I know that, for you, this is just the start and I can hardly wait to see all the minute details that are to come.

not to worry........I wouldn't think of putting any of mine to sea either it is cool to see how it would look though I do like the contours though......you got this hull into shape very early in the build

Hey Greg - How great to hear from you! I hope you're going well and fighting those nasties. Thanks for your compliments. Take care.

Well done. Now for the, as you called it, fun of furnishing the interior.

Many thanks Nenad and Mark.
I also reckon she looked great on the water. Better than I thought she would actually.
Interesting comments about the frogs, Nenad. There's koi and goldfish lurking beneath the surface. Given that the koi are about three times the size of Shadow....the potential for a major incident is very high!
Have a great weekend.
Cheers

I had to look twice, Patrick. She looks right at home in the water and to the unknowing, they might think the real thing.

Keep this beauty far from frogs ... or give her some gun
Great work!

Hi Vaddoc - many thanks. The break has been too long. Hopefully, now that things are getting back to normal, I can look forward to catching up with everyone's builds; yours especially!
Thanks Steve. Lots of work still to go, though! Much appreciated, as always.
Hi Frank - yep, you're right. Sometimes, these 'time outs' are unavoidable, but at least once they're over, it's full steam ahead again.
Hi Gary Many thanks and greatly appreciated. It's great to have you onboard for Shadow's journey.
Thanks Denis - It's amazing what a lot of putty and time can do!
Thanks Nils. I've got a lot of catching up to do, that's for sure!
Hi Elijah - thanks! You could be right about this time of the year. I think everyone's starting to feel the stress of Christmas, holidays, etc. Hectic times, that's for sure!
Cheers
Patrick
