I was going to write “Fun!” - the first thought to enter my head, mainly because I truly want to see that model afloat! Good work, sir!
Make more models!

Thank you guys! It's a great kit, but this one is in 1/700 scale so it's barely six inches long. They do have one in 1/350 scale too.
Thank you Bruce! Yeah, she was fun!
Thank you Tom!
Thank you John! Now if I could get some of my larger ships launched....
