Looking good, Al. You're just one awesome building machine - churning them out.

Man oh man! That is some detail you've added on the interior. Also, I've never seen that paint scheme before. I'm learning that there were so many camo variantions in the war!

Thanks all.
The decals are now on (all 90 of them!!!) and clearcoated to seal them in prior to the sludge wash.
The home brewed sludge wash and she looks like she has just been excavated from a bog!!!

Those must be tiny decals, Al, I couldn't get the count to 90. So, this one's going to be a salvage job from a bog? Cool.

Apart from the American stars, they are all tiny Mike!!!
Sorry Mike, didn't mean to mislead you. But you know, that's not a bad idea for a future build............!!
