Here again a small update.

At the 2nd deck the walls coated with veneer and put in the color.

for the windows I've got a darker color chosen for the yellow and white what the KIT prescribes personally I find nothing, hence the slightly dark colors.

Here again some pictures of the progress.

The structure of the second deck there is painted on all hatches and windows, now on to the construction of the radar.

As this photo shows the grid is a little crooked that is also on the drawing what the intention is here now I do not know but I think this has to do that walk around the deck, but I think it to the wrong side beveled, I'm not really satisfied. : (: (

Robert really looking good :)

 

yes it looks crooked but that's because you are looking at it from far away. imagine you are standing on the boat next to it. even do the deck angles upwards you d still be standing straight just like the vent is straight.

Here a few pictures of the progress.

 

The stairs are made​​, it all does not fall to places.'s A bit right

Left and right a little cheated and front view is I think so as well, on the side is the slightly off balance but it is much less.

Also placed around the railings.
