Thanks, but why should there be no updates?? It's not finished yet and even when It'll be finished, there will be another one ;) Danton is already raising steam in the boilers :P  No worries gentlemen. Plus I'm going for holidays on Sunday, so this thread won't be closed for at least 3 weeks :)

Finally put together ( more less ;) ) Missing bits are: rigging, few parts that are connected with rigging, and few parts that are on the PE fret that is in progress of beeing done :)

Has anyone have a destroyer sized spare nazi ensign? I mean the one you don't have to make up swastika out of 20 different pieces?

 

Thanks for watching

I think I'll pass on the cross, it's too big, maybe I'll use it in the future for sth else....

Super Nice rigging.

1) What do you use to rig with?

2) How did you do the "blocks" and for that matter - do you use CA or PVA glue for the insulators

 

This has taken it to another level again:cool:

All the short lines/cables are done with 0,06 mm stainless steel wire, the three long ones between masts are Uni Caenis 20 denier thread. 

Blocks: piece of paper cut with punch made out of  injection needle no 7 ( 0,7 mm ) Now the insulators... CA  no go, so was PVA this time, could't make them small enough. I've used some old thick white Humbroll paint  and 10/0 brush :)

Excellent result overall. A real prize winner.
