Looks super Song! This is an area not well covered by many of the drawings. The whole area of non skid was covered by a regular pattern of tiedown wells.

Coming along well! Cheers: Tom

[Song Jung Gun]

Thank you,Tom!
Your advices is very helfful for me. I start planking on frame.

Looks as if you can build a whole hull more quickly than some of the guys correcting the Trumpeter kit can do the hull mods! I presume you will add the small centerline keg under turret three after planking? Not shown well on some plans.

Cheers Tom

[Song Jung Gun]

Always thank you,Tom!
I don't forget your comments. I started planking on the frame.

Looks similar to the building of my Missouri hull n 1965 for Balsa! About 1988 I modified it to reflect the proper stern Skeg configuration and bulbous bow area. I ended up covering the whole hull with the super light fiberglass cloth as used by model airplane builders. The idea was to make it a RC model, but the ex-wife made off with all the RC stuff.

Looking good! Tom

[Song Jung Gun]

Always thank you.Tom!
I've done planking.

The aft end of the helicopter deck does not fair down to the fantail. but is an abrupt edge, perhaps 30 cm or so. I don't have them on this computer but will see if I can find a coupe of photos of this area for you.

Cheers: Tom

This is superb!! Really mind-blowing wood crafting skill!
I really want your perfect bow scaled down to fit my 1/350 Tamiya one!
You made an excellent build of which I will be watching with great interest.

Best regards,
