Another little thing done. This year is the year of little things. All in all about three months of work. Aoshima kit is mediocre at best, but with Five Star upgrade it becomes palpable. Five Star itself isn't stellar  and way behind Rainbow upgrades, but i does the job in this case. Little junk is a Rainbow one. Crew, as always lately is from ION Model, and that's about it.

Great build, Mick. Especially love the weathering and the seascape. Evocative little vignette!

Fantastic work Mick! Great painting and weathering. You gave it a lot of depth and detail, but still very much in scale. :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1:
Great photography too!

Probably you have spotted this too: the port bow railing seems to have sprung loose a bit when you photographed the model. But that should be easy enough to glue back into place! ;)

Thanks Marijn, nice to read comment like that, especially from you. As to the railing, I was always saying that MACRO is the enemy of all model making efforts :heh:
