Thanks Jim and Cardfan for your words
Jim, as the building goes, I have not used any coating so far, that's what I like the most from this model, somehow Wilhelmshaven managed to get the colors right and the finish is better than most of his models.
I also got USS Alaska from them, but instead of the usual card stock they used a glossy one, that model will still have to wait a bit.
I have a full bunch of ships waiting
.... Scharnhorst, Tirpitz, Alaska (from Wilhelmshaven) and also others from GPM and Halinski.
Greetings and Happy Hollydays,
Erick
