Gosh that is some fantastic detail work there Graham. 
I so hope that you are going to be there for the Ship GB next year: I feel your skills will be of great help to many of us mere mortals...

Marvellous work Graham, looking forward to more and glad to see you back onto this build.

A bit more done.  The fore funnel is now stuck on, the bridge is just placed on the deck.  Before I stick the bridge on I need to rig the funnel and fit the twin oerlikons.

This is going to be a hard act to follow....it is wonderful

The bridge and the fore funnel is complete and rigged.  The photos are a bit light and the colours are a bit darker than shown here

The Indianapolis was the first proper ship build I did but in 1/700 so I have a bit of a soft spot for it.  Looking forward to seeing this come together, great build.

The building of the main mast is finished.  I'm glad that Pontos provides spares for some of the smaller bits, as a couple of parts took a flying leap from the tweezers.
