Took a few photos of my Airfix 1/600 Mauretania to show you guys. It took me 4 tries to get the pattern right before I began painting it. Now I'm waiting on a book so I can see the pattern for the Port side!

Hello Mike, I would say you done very well indeed! That looks like a lot of fun to do, but oh so delicate work. I have the same kit on my shelf. One of these days I'll try to squeese it in!
Nice work there mate, keep us posted on your progress.
