I have been following this inspirational build almost from the start and it has been endlessly fascinating. As someone returning to the hobby after many years (and with Impending retirement) I was looking both for a long project and useful guidance and have found both here in spades. One thing I have found particularly useful is the stunning quality of your photographs. Although I won't begin to aspire to the quality of your level of detail, I will a least be able to see what I'm aiming for! Thank you again David

Nick An extraordinary build. The attention to detail is mind blowing. I'm taking my first faltering steps with PE on the 1/144 Revell Corvette. I had been struggling with the railings, so found your tip about PVA glue very useful. I don't know why I hadn't thought of it myself as, although I've just come back to plastic modelling, I've spent the last 15 years making card models and using nothing but PVA! My aim is to move on to the Hood later in the year and although of course I won't come within a country mile of your build standard, I will be using this thread for instruction and inspiration. David
