For those who have FB, this is no news, but I started the build this afternoon. The kit lets you choose if you want to go with the moulded on periscope guards or substitute them with PE ones. I decided to go all the way and played with PE: These are the results: I also reworked the underside of the body, tomorrow I should start adding pieces to it. As always ACW

Wouts, I'll try to show as much as I can of the interiors. I'm planning to do an "all open" version. Deano, cheers mate Andy, not yet, but still faster than a duck I know Pete, welcome aboard Todd, great to have you here. Dan, thanks for following Mac, hope it's a comfy chair, with my "speed" this will be a looong one Jeff, thanks mate, PE bending tool is really helpful. Leon, you will finish at least 6 builds before I'm halfway Gary Thanks to be here, mate The bench is a sideproject I built in the last couple of weeks Paul, glad you like it I should have some progress this afternoon when I'll tackle the bottom hull...

I started working on the bottom hull. This is the state it's in: Now I have to do all the suspensions, and this means a lot of tiny parts... As always ACW
