Hi friends, thanks for those comments, they are appreciated really
I was wondering how you guys could react because I wrote I liked my boats scuttled, burnt out, capsized etc :-)

Hi jba,

Stunning piece of work. Your figures are perfect for the setting. It's been a real pleasure watching this build, well worth the wait :-) :-)

Overall I think you have a real gem here. Unusual subject exceptionally well crafted and set in an extreme environment.

The shap and lines of the PT boat are great, the colours draw you eye to the frantic scene on deck and that water does look ever so cold :-) :-)

Thnaks for sharing ttis one and also for the interesting and informative article that went with it. Inspiring.

Nice one

Cheers

Al
