Thanks Villiers! My daughter asked me today if I had only built two ships and one small plane after working such a long time. She looked incredulous when I told her that was actually the case🙂

The notorious "pocket battleship" Graf Spee! Taking a seat for this one!

I'm planning to build the Trumpeter Enterprise with the Pontos upgrade set. I haven't decided if I should buy the blue stained wooden deck variant or the teak tone deck variant. I understand it is easier to weather the deck if I use the teak variant and add the blue stain myself. I haven't worked with wooden decks before and don't know if this is worth the effort or if
I should do it the easier way with the pre stained deck?

Following as I have also recently started work on this kit. You've already come a long way in just a few weeks time! The instructions have the superstructure upsides in some sort of linoleum color, did you deviate from that for any particular reason?

Chrisswe Auteur
I found a report by a modeller that seems very knowledgeable that says its wrong with linoleum brown, should be dark grey. Also I have been following "dry dock in scale" on YouTube that also paints the floor dark grey. I had more work to find out how to paint the small lower decks and the "decks" by the secondary guns but finally found a picture from 1939 that shows they are dark grey except the decks by the middle 3 guns which are the same colour as the hull.
