Harr.....had that last night.....corned beef......
A problem.......has manifested itself......while the weather is unseasonably good at the moment, the paint job I did last weekend is still not quite dry......so I moved the hulls to a room in the hoose that gets a lot of sun in the big windows.
So I sat them on the self out of the direct light and the ambient temperature in this room should complete the job for me........after 5 days the Humbrol #132 was still tacky.....but I have a "drying room" now......Phil

I have completed most of the superstructures, I'll stick her on hold for the moment, seeing I've been getting good days for painting I'll continue with the IJN battleship, she's not far off completion......Phil
