After some stone kicking and cursing with the names of old deities...

I'm cutting new decks from v-crooved plastic sheets.

I am just too messy for card/paper decks. Battle continues.

Hello!

I have been building the forward superstructure and funnel. I made the ventilators between Frahm tanks and the second funnel. These are wrong in HMV and Flyhawk kits. Go figure.

Hello

Small update for a silent day. I started gluing my first ever stahlschutzringe (steel protective ring) or kartuschauswurfring. I also added some PE windows from GPM and WEM and doors from GMM.

Thank you.

I made some more origami 10 finger work. Ventilation housings. You can see that the poop deck is just a base layer of card. I have to wait for some inks for my printer.

Hello.

I made funnels from scrap MDF and paper. Turrets are from ICM König kits. I cut away wedges of deck over the 150mm guns. As seen in photographs. Sea will be made of wall filler again.
