This was certainly a long haul, but well worth it by the looks of it! Have you given any thought to putting together a build feature for ModelShipwrights yet?

Thanks Jeremy- yes it was along haul , excuse my ignorance but what is involved in a build feature?

Just read through your build and was very impressed with your dedication well done mate.
You have ended up with a beautiful model which will probably will be a conversation starter.

Just click on the FEATURES tab up above and you can look at some examples such as Louis Carabott's USS Wasp and Alan McNeilly's M.A.S. 563 Serie 3a classe 500.

You can also put together a smaller feature minus the "in progress" photos such as Ed s. Sarao's M.A.S. 568 4a Serie or David J. Salvin's USS Thomas Jefferson CVN and HMS Vanguard.

It's essentially a collection of photos revolving around your build and some text that compliments it detailing things such as the history of the ship, your decision to choose it, details about your build experience and things you learned and were challenged by and anything else that you feel is pertinent to your build. You're basically sharing your experience with us. We'll be happy to help you put everything together if you're interested. And again, well done!
