Still hammering on this one a little at a time the planes are just about done still have like 4 or 5 boats left.The hold downs for the spare a/c part and the launches is tissue paper thinking it gives the ship some life.

I am just about finished with the railing with the SS L/side being the last little bit.The chain up front needs some glue ,deck R/side under storage rack more paint glue mark and then on too the rigging.I added a target to the R/side of the funnel not real wild about the strapping "is what it is"
