Hello cryton. Looks good. I'd like to ask how you manage to get straight lines to your paint? Is it as simple as using masking tape? Because I've tried this and my paint seems to creep under the masking tape in places which ruins the straight line.

Hi
Yes I cannt recall name of tape except its yellow cost is about £3.00 from good modellers shops it lays flat ,in part also when spaying a build up of paint can cause runs so I tend to put a fine layer allowing to dry one to make sure I,am happy with finished paint job so far I have used one whole reel of tape on bottom section .
Now put a side and working on upper structure aligning painted hull camoflarge .
I have had a week off due to cold but will be getting back into it keep in there I think ,of the finished job when having to do this testing part .patience is key that and plenty of coffee jim

James, I've just had a root in my spares box and found a 1/350 prop. It's from my Tamiya Bismark build. It looks a slightly different profile to the one on your sprue shot, but I reckon it could easily be filed to suit.

If you want it, send me your address via a P.M. and I'll post it off to you over the w/end.

Cheers,
Ron
