could you post an image of the real ship? there seems to be a few things a bit off, but I could be wrong.

She maybe will need some modifications.
The model i use was a pic in a naval magazine, where the ships shows up with the boat in the aft, and those colors and wires, but i can scan it or take a photo to upload here. The real photos i found in internet have some variations.

ah. she seems out of scale a bit, although I am not certain of that. have you made her from pics only or from an reference image?

Your light mast looks a bit too tall, too.

I found this may help with the hull from a frog kit of a near sister ship.

Hey Bombhead does that model come with a paint guide?
