This is nice work. I find your photos and narrative quite useful for possible future JSC builds.

Mark, You're doing a great job! I recommend continuing this way and not in a hurry to finish, patience is a virtue that leads to do impossible things!

@Don: Thanks! Hopefully I can serve as a good example to others (mostly of what not to do *g*) The one thing I did note when looking at HMS Dreadnought is the quantum improvement in image quality when compared to Nelson. The black lines are much thinner and cleaner. Should hopefully make for a better build.

@Marco: rushing is my biggest sin and I am doing everything I can to slow down. Part of acquiring these new skills also involves acquiring new disciplines.

Thanks, Fred. I noted in the close-ups that my knife needed sharpening so my diamond grit stone is ready to go. I picked that up, and a few other goodies, up at the Busy Bee Tools tent sale.

I live in Whitby. Not too far from you (cosmically speaking
