thank you Krzychu74, and barry

mesh done.im gonna try a new technique when i test build for the side top sensors. should keep the parts simple but give a more or less accurate look. now i have to do the aggravating part and texture it.

reading on the development of this boat, there were so many problems and took so many years, it spent most of its time sitting. i find it interesting that it was still a relevant enough platform to warrant its production.

i did a departure from my standard petal round nose. and i must say its the best results ive ever had. i think petals will be relegated to just the small shapes from now on.
