      Life preservers are life-belts in Brit terminology mate! Garter belts were a universal term at that time though ... so I'm led to believe!

          I have been procrastinating with the rails as they are numerous and fiddly.

          Still the bridge, guns, ropes and flag to do and a spot of weathering.

          Till next time, thanks for watching.:thumb2:

              Like Andrew I've missed some updates but caught up now. Excellent work on the life rafts and the rings. Rails are fiddly but looking good.

                Nice work Gavin.
                At last, kit railings that don't look like gorilla's arms!

                  Hi ya all!

                  I haven't updated since the last charge for Telford 2022. I did manage to complete the model to a point, enough so that I could put it on the clubs table.

                  Here are the build images leading up to Telford.

                    That looks like a cracking build.

                      As promised, the build made it to Telford and took its place on our small table.

                      I decided the Schnellboot deserved a display case, so I purchased the biggest one Trumpeter had to offer. To my surprise this turned out to be quite a tight fit.

                      Anyways, she is now proudly sitting in her new display case, looking quite the business, even if I have to say so myself.

                      Thanks for watching.

                      For my next project next project I am going to veer back into the realms of my late teens and early twenties, 1/35 modern AFV's.

                      Roll on the HEAVY METAL!!
