To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

The build looks really good, difficult to believe it's just a "simple" kit. The paintwork camouflage that very well!

Thank you, Kari. Total parts count: 40. about 25% of those were the deck cleats, capstans, etc. Not much to it. No railings, no torpedo door outlines, no anchors.....

If you saw my work up close you'd laugh your arse off - I'm just good at hiding it. If you could see the seam on the bottom of this Kiowa on the bench next to me you'd faint. I just can't be arsed to do anything about it.
