Looking really nice Lou but i think that your rigging is overscale. It just might be my impression since i am not a ship person and also not familiar with that scale but i think that they need to be thinner. The ship has changed completely with the funnels in place. It looks really great.

They are a bit Brian...but I always used this steel wire ...find it very handy ( meta nindrizzah)....pics show rigging much thicker than they originally are...but I see your point...yes it 's coming on nicely ...plenty of work still to do...but I'm working flat out to finish it...

Beautiful detail. It is going to be an attractive ship. Looks great and not the usual grey colours.

yes I'm working flat out..
The Bow end is nearly ready....the rigging was a nightmare...notice the brass plaque at the bow...didn't paint it...I polished it..
Incidently....the holes in the seascape will accommodate the floating mini icebergs

Don't worry Louis,
Pass wara Pass nidhlu fil-port.
Stephen Calleja shall have a good stock of Trumpeter 1:350 ships at a very slashed price. If I were you, I would pay him a visit.
