I think its a case of realising my own limitations  Think  I probably will have another go, but restrict its use to what is actually achieveable (by my limited skills)

And bringing up the rear of the flotilla - here's my build.   A bit of an endurance exercise - the most complex kit I've built in a long while married to a very complex and (IMHO) unusually poorly explained sheet of White Ensign PE.   Still, although I'm damn glad I've finally finished it, I'm pleased with how it turned out.  

New things for me - drilling out the portholes (worked well on the hull, less so on the superstructure) and rigging.  The rigging is a mixed bag - some of it OK, some a bit saggy.   I took Geoff's approach and did the minimum 'suggestive' amount.
