Impressive work all round. We actually have a Montana-class layout of our engineering spaces on board the Midway.

Sorry to add, this is quite possibly the worse I have seen from Kostas, the building is like gap city, among having appeared just to be placed not even stuck down, the figures on the beer, if this was my dio I'd be quite happy with it, but then I've been building for 4 years and don't sell as a living. For his first dock-side, I would have expected more from him, a lot more.
