I decided after looking at more pics of lusty(i`m a fool unto myself)that the radar on the model, although it looks okay was too solid looking,so i scratch built this insteadView attachment 46862<-this one i builtView attachment 46863 and this one i have to remove

Thought i'd posted on this mate, sorry seems i ain't.

I like what you're doing here Ole, i'm the same when i've seen differences in a model and photos of the real thing, it's compulsive to try and improve/change things.

keep it up and keep the updates comin' pal

Sorry to hear you droped it Ole but you can't tell from the picture above and its looking good

Just getting caught up on your build Ole, must have missed the start. The build is great and your scratching is first rate. I've only ever built one ship, the Santa Maria, more years ago than I care to remember, it was a poor effort, but this is giving me the urge to get one and have another go.

Keep up the good work and keep the photos coming.
