That is stunning!

And I really like the modular aspect of it. Being able to do more with less is what I have been trying to do with my terrain as well.

if this isn't excellent then I don't know what
some technicalities that might interest others too:
how did You "fix" the exchangeables? magnets or not at all?
and I couldn't see where and how the.... things that hold the lifeboats are fixed.
Rusting all with pastel powder?

and what is next?  :) :D

It has already been said (by many) but in this case it needs to be repeated;

This model is just fantastic!

I have followed the build from the start and have enjoyed reading about the construction.  Now that it is finished I am so very much in awe as the amount of detail and character.  I particularly love how you have built the ship to be modular and interchangeable.

Very well done.

Marvellous, from the cleanliness of execution down to the last tiny detail.
