Congratulations on completing a fine build Sea Hoss. You can be justifiably proud of her! :champagne-popping-smiley-emotic:champagne-popping-smiley-emotic:champagne-popping-smiley-emotic

Thank you all for your kind words and acknowledgements. The Emma was certainly more complex of a build than I at first thought. I have and will continue to admire the other ECBs under construction!

Your model looks wonderful, great job! I am still working on mine and you inspire me to complete it. Hoss, I have to ask, is that duplex we see out the window across the street finished yet also?

Fooled ya, got another update on my ECB... Got to work on the diorama and got the LED's on and working. Created some boatyard items to add interest. Still need to secure everything a little better and maybe add some rocks to the sand and a little construction debris. Eventually I'll get around to closing her up in glass and create a decorative top moulding. That's all for now.

Thanks for the comments, she's getting to be a popular model, lots of fun building her! Yes Will, the model RR sites are great for diorama components.

Beautifully done, Hoss! I love the slight weathering on the hull, the lighting and the elements you are beginning to add to the whole diorama.
