Looking really good so far Gary. She is a monster now isn't she. The only thing I can see to suggest. If not already done. Can't tell with the pic. Is to take a small brush and paint the tips of the main guns black. This will give it a hollow look since the are already mounted. It would be easier than trying to drill them out.
Other than that keep them pics coming she really does look like a beauty.

Thanks for the comments Paul, I wish I had a camera that takes good close ups. This is from my old 35mm camera. You realy cant tell in the photo's, but the barrels have been drilled out. I may try not resizing the pic's next time.

Kind regards,
Garry
