Looks great!

I still haven't finished the last 3% of the "tirpitz" yet. (the superstructure isn't even glued in place). I keep getting distracted...

Superb Alan, well worth the wait. This has turned out to look just awesome, looks even better now she is thundering through the sea.

Top work mate, really like this.

Cheers will glad you like it

I have a a tirpitz but that was only my second build after I took up the hobby again so it's a bit rough around the edges

I love seeing a warship built well so get yours done

Cheers mate I appreciate it , I worked out that it's taken me three months to complete this but it was well worth it for the experience of pe

Thanks again mate

I am not the best modeller by far but will generally have a bash at anything but the amount of PE for this kit and the awkward PE builds would mean that, a 3 month build for you, would take 3 years for me or never. The pictures I have seen you post of you making up the PE stuff and the fiddly bits where enough to make say...nope.

Can only say once more, well done on a truly great build, I think you have done the model and yourself justice.

Thanks Si I don't think I will be doing something as detailed pe wise again but I will be buying pe for most kits from now on

I've just bought some railings from Eduardo for my type 23 frigate but I doubt I will put that one at see

Thanks again mate

You are right getting into your ships mate. I take it you used silicone to form the waves etc and then added white paint for the peeks and the bow waves etc?

[Alan 45]

I do like building ships I think it comes from when I was a kid I always wanted to build big battleships but my pocket money would never stretch to buying them

I have five in my stash well ones a revell 72 scale flak 88 torpedo boat I might put that one at sea

Yes the sea is silicone with white paint for the tips of the waves I think you gave me the advice about using that when I posted my Yamato build

Outstanding build Alan loving it.
