Following kit instructions ... you call that fun ... ? So far there has been one challenge: Getting the hull plating to show at this scale. Before that,:To glue or not to glue ... now ripping things up, and adding components, makes it start to look almost like a scratch build a bit of a basratch build It starts to cool down - I know Greg: Tain't 'alf 'ot 'ere - so tonight I'll get my rattle can of flat varnish out and give Vendetta and the two Japanese subs a coat. After drying, the subs get a gloss coating on their balast tanks to make them look whet-ish for some realism when I get on a diorama ... I'm visualising palmtrees , a sandy bay, white beaches, tropical drinks ........ and two moored subs ... whats wrong in this picture

Again thanks for the likes and the comments! CLeared the deck with the molds to stick the platform on. primed a couple of parts, funnels, base of the forard "super"structure, 4.7" guns (inside, and bottom), replaced the bollards, and fairleads. I'll try tomake a picture with the difference kit vs detail up. I'll need to build a searchlight tower, and change the bridge's rear section. Going to have some fun ... that's for certain

Don't drag, use the bin icon on the image itself. Very nice, and crisp detail. You really did a wonderful job there

Piet, He means the colour scheme from 1942 to 1944 ... ( ) It really does make a vast difference, Greg, so much better. Is it a tripod mast?

Would that be logical ... It is odd as they seem to be the result of the mezza lune technique. But how would you make a fluent hull shape if you did use them ...

It's a bit like the French measurements before, during, and after the revolution ... but the Japanese added a third dimension, being body length ... somehow they always find a way to make things seem complicated, and when you look into it, it is rather logical ...

When you have them double in your edit box at the bottom where you upload the images to show in your post, you should throw one out, it will disapear from the posting, at least, I presume that is the matter

The hull plating I applied with primer over the length of the ship is just 3mm wide ... I'll be needing a brush with a single hair

The point is, when I look at the model in her present paint covering, I can distinghuis the hull plates quite well. What will be the result after the final colour coats have been applied ... will the plating still be visible ... I can try it on this one, and if it isn't pronouced enough, I can add the highlights and shades on the HMCS Huron, which I'll be building too ... decisions, decisions, decisions ... (Never knew plastic models could be so hard to build)
