Thanks Guys,

I enjoy putting these things in their proper element. Since it will be "parked" as it were, I can get away with very little wave and wake action, something I haven't had much luck with as yet. I am working on getting the railings installed with some Gator Glue and adding the supports to the after deck where the AC and after mast is mounted. It is fussy work, have to leave enough room to add the railings but make it close to the edge. In this scale it is a slow process.

I have also undertaken a new project, something that I have been wanting to do for a long time now, making a paper or card model ship. You can check out my progress on that over in the Kitmaker side of things since they have a "Paper Models" section. I have chosen the IJN Akizuki as my subject for the project in a rather more generous scale of 1/200.

I will be working on both as time goes along, one gets attention while the glue on the other sets up.
