Looking great. Is the conning tower a cut-away as well?

Not sure Ian will look later.

Brian, not wishing to be the bogie man on what is one superb build, but looking at the clear plastic, I wonder if both natural light and your great internal lighting will somehow reflect on the clear stuff and make viewing of the interior a bit obscure?

Heaven forbid you might have to think about cutting out sections of the clear hull and painting the remainder 'Hull Grey'

Just a passing thought.

Great work and loving every update.

Ron I will be masking and painting some of the clear leaving just viewing areas clear IF I have to I will cut some away that's a big IF

[spanner570]

Good thinking!
Whichever way you approach it, I'm sure the end result will look superb. :thumb2:

This monster is not A kit. it is lots of large kits that all fit together to make a huge one.

That's very true. Amazed at the size of the thing in the "all joined together" photos.
Great progress as usual.
