Hi all
I am calling this complete. It has been something new for me. Quite a learning curve. It has turned out OK for a kit which only cost £8. Most of it was shared on the old MilMod forum and I am eternally grateful for all the comments and support.

To think how this looked out of the box and what you have ended up with 5***** Every little detail has been painstakingly done, what a start to Scale Models.

Blinkin' marvellous Jim! I can smell the sea (and rotting seaweed!) and hear the cry of the gulls. Reminds me so much of the times I've spent in St Ives, wandering among the boats in the harbour at low tide.

Beautifully done, but I gotta tell you it'd shine up real nice with a bit of T-Cut!

Thank you so much for your kind comments. It was fun to do but I'm glad to have it done. Now I can move on to a new project in my new home - Scale Models :thumb2:
