  1. thanks Dragzz I finished the aft structure (although on the picture I can see I need to work on the handrails as they are not straight) now I could glue the deck on top the forward structure is glued in place but there is plenty of work to do (the green border,5 doors, 4 windows and lots of handrails)
  2. as you know the last few weeks I have tried to find a way to fix the deck on top so it would still be removable if I had prepared better I might have been able to implement some of the suggestions made. I had no desire to rip out the 3rd deck stateroom again so I finally admitted defeat . this morning I connected the last wires, checked the lights where working and then glued the deck on top now I can finish her off (I am aiming for the end of the year) i will post some pictures soon
  3. did a bit more painting tonight also used the mat varnish from admiralty for the first time . when applying it is a bit whitish but that goes when it dries. so far I like the look of it
  4. very nice Robert. definately better then the manual. i did go with the yellow myself which goes i think with my scratch build windows
