Multipurpose vessel Mellum by HMV, skale 1:250

Hello friends!
Apparently I'm starting to like ship models more and more as I start my second more serious ship model. This is the 1:250 scale Mellum multipurpose ship. In my opinion, this is a very interesting and beautiful ship, which, for now, gives me real pleasure to do it. Let's hope that the final result will be successful.
I'll start with photos of the build process.

Good day friends!
Today I will show you some more pictures from my project. It is good that the rich glazing allows to see many things inside.

Very nice! Are those laser-cut railings? The kit seems to have good detail without having very difficult small parts so far.

Hi Siwi,
thanks for your comment. The railings are laser cut. I bought them complete with the model.
For now, the model was easy to build, but now there are not small but very, very small parts to come and we will see what will happen.
Greetings Lachezar.

Hello Lachezar,
Your ship project looks good.
I am sure it will be successful, since you have shown you can build anything.
Mike

Hello Michael,
after knowing some of your projects, your comment about my project is an honor for me.
These days I took a little break, but now I continue again with the small details that give the beauty of the model.
Here are some pictures:

It's looking really good with the crane and other equipment on the deck. Have you used paint/pens to retouch the colour on edges?

Beautiful work.
Those close-up images of the stern show the excellent details with the cranes.

Hello friends,
Sivi, Shipbuild and Michael thanks for your comments. I continue the battle with the small details. To strengthen the mast I added a wooden insert. Now comes the most difficult part for me, the installation of the rigging because I have never done this before.
Here are some pictures.
