Wow! thank you so much ddp! I’ll definitely going to end up having my nose buried in this for hours! For today’s progress I glued the deck pieces to the hull, puttied and sanded gaps between the hull and deck. The kit fits extremely well; all the imperfections that I had to fill in were mostly my fault but the stern area did have some issues that I will finished tomorrow: My main concern here is the wood planks molded into the deck; sanded the putty remove quite a bit of detail. I’ve tried rescribing with an Exacto and a ”straight edge” but looks pretty ugly as of now:Any thoughts? anyways I’ve finished sanded down mold lines and imperfections with the underwater portion of the hull; parts near the deck will be done tomorrow.I’ll also probably be attaching the propulsion systems tomorrow and begin with small deck details. I’ll be back tomorrow! Good night !

Hello all! This will be my first build log. It's not my first scale model ship; it's my second, but I've done a couple of plane kits before. As a newbie, my first model I only did photo etch railings and ladders, which turned out ok, but I still chose to go easy with the photo etch for the next model so here I am with with Alaska. Unfortunately, summer vacation is winding down for me and school will hinder progress but I'll try to make as much progress as possible before then. I'll start off with basic photos of the kit spruces (more detailed ones will be done as I progress with the build): Spruce A Spruce B Spruce C Spruce D Spruce E Spruce F Spruce G Spruce J Spruce K Photoetch Frets I'll try and upload some build progress on the hull and deck but if not done this evening, it'll be up tomorrow. Enjoy!
