I have deceided that I will restart this hull...although this is intresting...and I think it would beI wonderful for a hull, say like the "Cutty Sark" where you have copper plates for the final hull dressing....this is not appropriate for a DD or DE:o...should be smooth...maybe suggestion of some linear pattern...but overall much more smooth...so shall begin over...I will keep you posted with pictures of the progress..as always...peace out
