  1. I have seen Screws in Tamiya's Bike Kits and some of their latter 350 Ship Kits. OK her Hull is now done. I sanded off the F/D Details to be replaced with a Pontos Deck which fitted perfectly. The way they did the Hull means a lot of Putty and Sanding. Not what I expected from Tamiya. More to come soon.....Cheers mark
  2. I will be watching this one with keen interest.....Cheers mark
  3. This was the first major Kit I built as a kid so it is bringing back some fond memories. Watching how you are updating her will be fun to watch.....Cheers mark

  5. Ok the Bottom third of the Hull is now together along with her Skegs, Shafts, Rudders and P/E Water Inlet Drains. More to come soon.....Cheers mark
  6. OK here we go. Tamiya have moulded the Hull in a strange way. Reminds me of their Enterprise Kit. Maybe for Box Size or better Hull Detail. It means some fun puttying and Sanding. More to come soon.....Cheers mark
