Looking fantastic Larry, your aft lifeboat and davit assembly was masterful. Great to see the same thread you used on USS Constitution, looks so incredibly like the real thing for such a project. I've done some research onto the wellin quadrant davits for a possible HMHS Britannic, according to what I've read the white paint was susceptible and easy to blacken via sooting from docking moments, like when tugboats took part in moring the ship. Most of it appeared as small streaks and tiny patches in certain areas from what I've read, might be interesting to see such sooting on the top of each davit, it's just a thought.. so.. please don't misunderstand. Your doing a truly fantastic job, it's looking like a true work of art. If your interested in knowing, I think I'm going to try and get the KMS Scharnhorst for Christmas, that way I'll have both Gneisenau and Scharnhorst side by side, Gneisenau took me over 4 months to make, so I'd like to see it'll take to do her sister. Stay safe and happy modelling mate 👍
