tell the truth it dont look much different to sat photo, and honest I put loads of transverse frames in today, i can honestly say that this has been really enjoyable build so far, and if given the chance i would do all 3 sections together with open frames and no hull plates

good evening everyone day 11/90 up to main deck level thank you for comments and likes not quite as much done today as planned, but the height certainly increased as the tween deck on the shortened middle section went up to the main deck and i was able to put the main longitudinal in, this will help me get the alignment right, for everything going aft the ribs for shortened middle section are not strong enough to support the weight yet, i may have to rethink that area having done that i went to the after peak and went up another deck again to the main deck level, the longitudinal should go in tomorrow very little of todays work is glued yet i placed the accommodation blocks on top in more or less the correct position there is another level to be made up, it is certainly going to be a nice sized diorama im pleased with it so far, perhaps it looks naff to some,
