Could we rename you as 'Our Uri Geller', Haddock.
The way you can make straight etch brass into such complicated shapes, leaves me in awe.

                    Some progress made, the pictures probably speak for themselves.
Nothing too dramatic fixing the railings, bit of re-engineering neede here and there.
              There are places where I feel there should be railings but non are provided in the kit
so I've just added some generic stuff.

Will there be railings around the rear deck as well?

       All the weather decks have railings but they're not included in the kit which is a bit mean of Trumpeter.
Lots more small detail to go on before the railings are added, probably the final parts to go on.

All looks shipshape as always, from the Haddock Shipyard.

Almost there chaps, just a few bits and bobs to add, some dirt but not much,
then setting on a base with water, some time later.
The pictures probably speak for themselves.

Another great model to add to the growing collection.

Hi Haddock,
Another superb clean and tidy build. The finesse of the build and detail is incredible.

I admire the detail you manage to put into your ships Tony. If my modelling was only half as good.
