Everything in a dry fitting stage so far. The forward tower has been enhanced with the appropriate PE, the plastic foremast has been replaced with the scratchbuild one. The originally used Tom's Modelworks Mk 8 radar has been replaced with the Five Star one, much better proportions. The Mk 37 directors have been equipped with the Mk 12 + Mk 22 combos.

I think you must have some Lego figures at least four times the size of normal Lego figures and a huge match – go on admit it. I'm amazed that it's even possible to work PE with such detail, at such a scale!

Well, you got me. These are my fireplace matches and LEGO minifigs in a 1:10 scale 😉 In fact, it is not particularly difficult to work at this scale if the PE is reasonably designed.

Update (images No. 15 - No. 19). As the forward halyards are done, most of the secondary battery could be installed as well (except for the sternmost turrets). Onto the aft halyards now...

Thank you, guys.
dplentini> It's kind of easy. You only need to come along with Darth Vader. No one, I mean NO ONE dares to oppose him 😉

Well, I consider the ship itself finished. No planes, no crew, no water yet. However, at least this...

The album has been cleared of the previous pics, just the final appearance remains.
