Next job clean up the joins and then fasten it down onto the 2mm base plate. 
Now what to use for the water/foam - have seen cotton wool or strips of toilet paper used but people say it yellows with age (the cotton wool not the people) any ideas       

DAS Modelling clay, then painted.
Mod Podge?

All gaps filled and most of the discrepancies between the levels of the plastic removed - now only 174 hours of filling with progressively smoother files to get a decent finish - ohhhhh the joys of model making hohohho

You'll manage it Martin.

As smooth as its going to be - untill the coat of primer shows any really bad bits.  Its now fastened down to the base plate, so will have to leave it to go solid - sounds like time for more coffeeeeeeee

All extra bits (all 6 parts) now fitted and holes in sail filled in.

Progress Martin.

Thar she blows........
Nice work.

Thank you Cap Ahab - she has now had first coat of gloss black, think she will need a second and maybe a third coat, we shall see.

Nice shade of black.

Yes even after 3 coats of spray still showing as shades of black, will try some brush paint next - or could just cover it in water     

Base made for the sub to break out of - needs some filling and priming, now what colour shall I do the base as some of the water is going to spill out onto it       

Borrow some of Chris W's greys and go for North Atlantic.

Nah, stick with the black.

Sticking with the black- when I can get a sigle colour on the hulland the sea will be very light blue from the Pacific - thats the plan at the moment.

And I thought you a true RED......
