Hi all - my first go at a 1/700 and i'm calling it finished. I realise there's still a lot to learn as it is nowhere as good as Ralphs recent build but for a fist go I'm quite happy with how it turned out. Hope you enjoy the pictures and comments more than welcome. Thanks Nick T.
Thanks Ralph and Tim, enjoyed making but certainly straining on the eyes at this scale. Already on top shelf waiting for the next build to move it down.

Hi Ron, Thanks for your comments, my next build which is for the Cosford under £5 is a 1/1200 Tirpitz. I was surprised to see that it only has 31 parts though so guess you get what you pay for and I certainly should have paid more attention to the E-bay description. Oh well it will be an interesting challenge.
Thanks again,
Nick T.
Nick, I've made 6 of these little gems. Small on the part count they may be, but they are not to be taken lightly. Not easy to paint the camo. and rig, but well worth the care needed to turn the kits into great little models.
Hi Ron, looking forward to it, just joined the group build showing Tirpitz parts etc. Will give it by best shot with limited experience.
Thanks,
Nick T.
Welcome to the forum. Nice to see you posting your work. A wonderful sea scape and it looks like it went very well indeed. Look forward to seeing more of your work.
