A fine looking craft to model, I also like the choice of boat 'Hampstead' & it's green decking, to stand out from the others in the flotilla, CONGRATULATIONS 🎊 by the way of your promotion to Commadore, ( appropriate for a flotilla commander) 👍😁😀

As a 'big gun' ship fan, it's great to see a model of one of the lesser known Battle cruisers!!, especially if that model is bieng ' rescued'!!, at such a large scale this HMS REPULSE is RARE indeed !!.
Good luck with your repair of ' HMS Repair' 👍 😁

Always more than one way eh !!, I should think even very experienced builders get stuck, a build blog is great for beginners and 'old hands' alike !!, great work Robbob !!. 👍😊👌😀
