Coming together at a pace.
Going to be a very impressive diorama.
Think you will need to stack these up to save space.

certainly, it is all getting out of hand - as usual.

The back board is just about complete.
The Vietcong have been tunnelling under the US base.

LOOKING great  - don't forget things like "Bac Ho se chien thang" uncle Ho will win painted on the walls/fence/etc
Yes I had looked up comments to go on the French long dock model - so I have also got "tieng Phapra" and "nguoi Phap ve nha" if the comp is correct that should be French out and French go home - or it could be something else instead - blame google

Three boards, side view.

Was thinking if you did a Shell "H" boat it would only be 2.36m long - this was the ship I went up to Saigon in. 
If you decided to do a Shell "L" boat - one of my later ships it would only be 4.88m long - the speed you go it should be finished by Christmas yohoyohoyoho

I knew Martin would ask about the tanker. Fibber looking good.

Back to battling with the Mach 2 Pibber.
Well the parts are really badly formed and a lot of fettling and scratch building will be needed, as well as filler.

Yes that sounds like me - hohohhohoho - but what about the tanker

First layer of water added, Mod Podge, it takes a while to dry.
