Just laid the keel on my new project. Could not resist Marsh's drawings anymore.

A few more structure pieces have been made. The gun installation are poorly depicted in the Marine Miniature drawings, so I will use my 1/96 scale drawings to render them slightly more accurate.

The mid ship gun platform and open bridge areas have had their armour plating installed and one gun turret has been made.

This one done pretty quick. I love my work. The shipyard is officially on shore leave until the fall.

Nice! I was about to say that my ships always get stalled out, but my subs seem to get turned out like sausages, at least ;)
Good show, Lou. Can't wait to get started on my waterline navy.

Perhaps a re-supply ship next????
