                         This is my first boat/ship build in a long, long time. I usually build armor. Let me know what you think.

                                             Thanks for looking, doc

                        She's a beaut!. Real nice job on the weathering. I remember playing in the bathtub with this kit as a kid. It floated quite nicely. I wouldn't recommend trying that out with yours though;)

                        Excellent job overall. I specially like the slack on those two foreward lines. I love those Elcos and Higgins. You seldom hear of stories of PT crews but they had their share of fierce battles with the Japanese.

                        A very nice finish, the last boat I tried was Tamiya's 1/35 Pibber, didn't work out too well for me, I'm hoping to do one again- this looks great!!
