From here I think I'll paint/decal/weather before moving on to the hull and deck.

What kind of gloss coat is this? Presumably there is one. Eh, referring to photo six.

@Treehugger It's a standard Mr. Hobby gloss coat. I did a panel wash just before picture six, and hadn't yet applied another clear coat.

Thanks guys! I'm really pleased how it came out considering it's my first ship. Honestly I think I'll stick to airplanes after I finish the ships in my stash 😛
