Last little bits, the end!

As above some close up of some superstructure details and mast antennae details. Overall, the stock kit went together well and is suited for novice to advance novice builders. But for detail nuts like Marco and I they are a good base for detailing. For the slightly impatient, you can use the tons of after market parts, photo etched, for 1/350 scale kits that are out there. The scale difference is negligible, ie a t foot barrel in 1/400 is 7.6mm. In 1/350 it would be 8.3mm. at typical viewing distance you really can't see .7mm. I say this because I used master models 40mm barrels in brass.
