Now and the job done :) Next one will be trickier, brass tapes and searchlight tracks. It'll be fun :)

Nick yes, all the deck jobs were freehand, unlike the plating this couldn't be done off the tape.

 

As for those other tubs mentioned... we don't take that modern rubbish kindly here..... :pumpkin:

Highlight done, time to go back to the other type of tiles, but it's only 2 and 1/4 of a streak. I'll do it in no time ;)

I even managed to align the top and bottom parts of plates.... well most of them :)

Phase II finished, I was wandering lately why there are no comments... and then I realized that I put together and painted 18 parts.....in 8 months hahahaha. I hope that soon this thing will gather some momentum.

An amazing effect! I still can't get my head round how you did it but I am mightily impressed all the same.

This effect looks so simple but just shows what most modellers try and fail so many times to achieve and fail 

to get the right effect of the platting on such a small scale.  👍🏻

Bit of wear and tear on the upper part:

It has to dry for a bit now ( used mostly oils ), but since I'm going away for two weeks holidays soon, it fits nicely ;) After I'll come back, I'll finish underwater part with oils.

I've not looked in on this since early days, to be honest, the box art rather put me off, I'm not a great fan of pre dreadnought era ships but seeing it now, that looks rather interesting, I might munch on a steady diet of words for a bit, mainly mine. :)
