Very clean work on the bracing of the aft deckhouse overhang. The pointy end looks very good, too.

All changes suggested by Padre are incorporated into the model.

If you continue at this pace, Chiddingfold will be available in no time

Have to put the depth charge pics. up cause I complained that there was no diagram to show how they went together. But GreMir, hopefully understanding and patient, said that there was a diagram and I looked and there it was!!:p I must be going blind. If all else fails.........read directions!

Padre, your ship is excellent. The hull looks very clean and linear. The fittings are marvelous.

Working on midships and stack of Chiddingfold. Everything going together well and response from GreMir is great. I said that this would be a good model for a beginner earlier, now, maybe an advanced beginner. Model is looking good.

The step-by-step photos are very helpful in showing how the ship goes together. It looks great, Terry.

More midships structures completed, searchlight, 49mm gun, etc. All gun barrels were reprinted on regular paper so that they could be rolled tightly/easier and fit in slots better. That includes forward, mid and aft main guns.

! made an error early on at the bow. I put the wrong color gun mount there:(. Error is corrected and put in its rightful place at the middle of the ship:p. The guns are designed so that the barrels will go up and down but not side to side. With a little thought and work they could probably be made to do that if anyone wanted to.
