Hello,

Hi Clayton
This is a great model , the attention to detail is immaculate.
Have you ever visited the warship itself in Stockholm, sweden?

Fantastic work :cool_2: :cool_2:

I hope you have a great trip. Stockholm is a great city as the people are. Check out the "Old Town". I am biased in that I am half Norwegin & half Swedish. The jokes never end! I have more pics, but the quality is not the best. Enjoy your trip. We had great time!!!

Oh my Clayton!!!
I browsed your website. That was an incredible piece of work !!! Totally amazing!!!

And all in tribute (?) to one of the larger Swedish fiascos (I'm allowed to say that because I'm from Sweden :big_grin: )

And I enjoyed your holiday pictures as well. You seemed to have been covering a lot of ground on your trip to Europe.
