I received this morning the model sent by Mike Meyer, plus a bonus ship.

Now I see the Hansa product in the flesh, so to speak, I am even more in admiration of your finished ship.

I have several Triang examples which I have painted but are not anywhere near the quality level of your model.

Unfortunately, as I have aged trying to finish a Hansa model of the GMD just won't do it justice. I shall just have to accept my limitations and enjoy my efforts whatever the results.
