Resolved a transition problem in the rear of the hull. I still have to get the "Flare" on the bow, where the Hull goes past the deck. Should be finalizing the hull soon, thought I had. Everything still unfolds, so that's good.

Working on Deck details. Every picture of this ship shows it so cluttered, or mothballed, trying to strike a balance. There is an issue that has arisen in the rear between the formers and the the deck which is obvious in the picture. Problem is, both blue prints are from the same drawing. I just found it, so it shouldn't be too hard to figure out.

O.K., I fixed the rear end of the ship, I think?!? . Every time I think I have the Hull done, something elses catches my eye. I think I am going to have to settle for close enough. Here's where the Hull is at now.

Oh oh! Now I 'm worried!! I am hoping to make as basic a model, but "busy" enough, with the intentions that builders add their own details. That is one plan anyways. The possibility add on supplements could be possible. I hope you feel free to offer up anything you wish, as my respect for you and your work, and our friendship, could lead to a nice model! Thanks!

Starting on Superstructure. I noticed a bit in the bow I have to rework, but no big deal.
