Trying to move along - have the forward superstructure getting close to being "done". Once the forward tripod is on, most of the major construction will be done. Then it's on to photo-etching, ships boats (tedious!) and touch up work....







Still a little rough - I keep seeing things that need to be touched up everytime I take a new photo!

Hi Martin!
Progress looks good, mate...I know what you mean, man...I do the same thing...think it looks sweet until I take a dig. and then see all kinds of trash...kinda like a good warning system though, eh?

Looks very nice. Those tripod masts look so massive and impressive I can't wait to see them with the control positions in place.

I agree, I almost hate to take pictures of my kits, since it shows every flaw. At least to my eyes.

That is absolutely true!!! But Gunny's got a great point, it does point you back to the things you can correct. I'm amazed at the things I've missed until they jump out in a photo!
