Thanks everyone! It was definitely a challenging first of it's kind build for me. When you're used to building 1/48th jet's or simple starships, it's quite a change!

I really enjoyed following your build- it is sure one to be proud of! Now, get that thing in a case before the dust lands!

What, no helicopter?  Heh, just kidding—she looks fantastic, mate! Your phone seems to make for a pretty decent camera as it is, so I can't wait to see the brace of photos you put up for the finisher.  What, no helicopter? :D

Well, I think she's done.  Now time to break out the Nikon and the tripod, instead of the phone! Well, I think she's done.

Question for those in the know.....rigging, are there actually lines that ran from the masts to the bow and stern? I see them on the museum ship, but I'm having a hard time finding in service pics that are clear enough to show that.
Thanks!

More work from today. The link antenna at the bow is in progress, hoping I can run the lines on it without destroying the Eduard PE. More antennas added to the superstructure, more rigging, rudders added back (oops) and more little details going on.
Comments/critiques are always welcome!
