Cheers James I think it was worth sacrificing build time on the ship to get this one finished.

Apart from minor details I'm calling this one finished.

Fantastic, my friend! What a great job -- that's one to be proud of. And what a pleasure for me to see one built after all these years!

All the best,

Great work, Splash!!! It is so good to see this model actually built - it is a good design and rather sad that more builders don't take it on.
Please critique my posts honestly i.e. say what you think so I can learn and improve...

I fully agree having done several web searches I have only found a couple of small images of the built model.

I can only think that people might of thought that as it was a free model it would not have been up to much or when they downloaded it thought it looked a too complicated shape to build.

All I can say to anyone looking to build it, is it's free, well designed, fantastic fit of parts and looks good when finished, if you have a couple of builds under your belt download it and have a go.
