Ahoy Shipmates!!!

TAD Armorama Crewmember Stefan Halter [DANGEROO] shows us his skills with the USS Fletcher in 1/350.

I think we might promote him to Honorary MSW Crewmember is he keeps this up!

Well done, Stefan!
Next time cut you railings into smller sections so they won't lift off or curl inward. I usually do not use lengths longer than 5 sections!
Looking forward to your next build!
Cheers,

Thanks for the comments guys. Just returned from vacaion and noticed this up.

Thanks for the tip on the railings, Guido. I hope to have a steep learning curve on my next build (DML's 1/350 scale USS Independence).

Cheers!
Stefan

PS: Jim, thanks for the promotion recommendation Now if only I knew what TAD is...
