Amazing detail but the star of the show has to be the 'water' - the best I've ever seen!

Great work on both the ship and sea 👍. Is the anchor chain included in the kit or a aftermarket item, and if so, wich brand it is?

I'd love to see a how-to for the water effects. The ship is impeccable

@ CaptGPF: I´ve created the seascape with different sized sand glued in place with thinned down white glue and then applied a coat of AK´s foam sealer. Bow and stern wave are painted and all was covered with Still Water.

This is not the best way. On my next ship project I´ll try the method of Blue Ocean Studio:
