Bravo for your resilience and incredible work!

Not sure I'll ever see the final photos of the finished battleship...

But for now, we're enjoying it. :thumbs_up_1:
I am not sure, too! :big_grin: :heh:

Very nice project, and well done thread. I aim to be half-as-good as you guys doing large ships. The craftsmanship involved in the detailing is what I'm most impressed with.
