Seaplane tender USS Langley AV-3 1:350

Finished all the railings and stairways at the stern compartments. After this I wanted to finish the funnels and discovered I made a mistake: The sidewalls (G48 and G49) of the compartment of the foldable funnel exhausts should not be glued directly with the ceiling part (G9) - I made exactly this :unamused: . The only solution was to scratchbuild new sidewalls from Evergreen

and cut off some part of the old sidewalls to let the funnel exhausts get connected with the funnel pipes

In the end it looks this way and no one will know the difference :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Another look over the finished stern compartments with all its railings and ladders


Then I made the canvas dodgers for the bridge upper railings as you can see in most pictures. It was done the usual way with Kristal Klear first and then with Vallejo 70.884 Stone grey. I like it :yum:

Well thats it for this weekend :raised_hand_with_fingers_splayed: :beers:
