Rock on! We've got the base Super Structure printed and assembled. First sanding done, seams filled in too and ready for a primer coat. The hull has been primed and thanks to my lovely and patient Wife, Nikki she went over the seams a couple of times with the UV resin and sand paper between primer coats and the seams almost disappeared. Good 'nough for gumb'mint work!

There's a bit of an oopsie on the back of the Super Structure where the part came loose from the bed, but fortunately it was round about the last few layers so it should be an easy patch. The full size version was made to be an RC boat, but since I scaled this one down 50% and plan to only do a static shelf model, I'll glue the Super Structure down and make as much as that seam go away too.

Next to print are a lot of details parts, masts, guns, railings, radars, Exocet Missile and torpedo tubes, depth charges, propellers and markings...oh and a couple of anchors. What would a ship be without a couple good heavy anchors?

I'm getting pretty excited to be close to finishing the assembly and final paint job on this one! :-D
