Anchor Well & Torp Doors
Thanks to Jess Montgomery for pointing out some needed modifications, such as the anchor well and torp doors. The anchor well should be farther forward, and the torp doors should be shorter. It was scary, but I started chopping. I will lose some rivets, but some photos show welds at the bow, so I will replace with putty weld lines.

The round floods at the bow should be smaller than the model shows, so have filled in with tube and drilled out a bit.

Just a small selection now, more to come (and open to suggestions).
