Did not have too much time lately, but today managed to do a tiny-tiny bit :-)

 

First lashed the guns as defined by the Navy Board  ...

it is unique,  because it has two purposes.......to try out new ideas and techniques,  and as a diorama when the ideas and techniques are successful!  wonderful work Daniel..........it's obvious to see all of the thought that went into them ;)    nice!

Thank you all for the kind words :-)

 

By now, this build was incorporated into my big Victory build as it developed into a test for several features over there.

 

Please refer to this link to see the whole documentation full of drama, blood and gore :-)

Great work Dafi - very realistic weathering, especially on the anchor.
