Thanks Michael. Detailing can be time consuming but rewarding.

Speaking of details I’m now up on top of the forward superstructure, adding lookouts stations and other details before starting the primary gun directors

Thanks FRD.... I appreciate the kind words.

I’ve built up the basic housing of the director. Now there lots of little hatches and doors to attach before building the array that mounts to the front. Patience in this intricate assembly.
