Shapin' the Seydlitz


I've had some more free time recently, so I delved into this build. I worked a little on the core of the ship's hull, which should be 22mm tall with an added 2mm deck. It is a composite of 2x10mm and 1x2mm layers. I roughly shaped the bottom and sides, but more should be done once higher tiers of the hull (the casemate gundeck and the upper deck) are built. 

You can see the steel slabs installed for ballast; she must be back-weighted a little because the forward superstructure sits a lot higher and is more crammed.

It's time to get more rough sandpaper, because currently I'm not very content with how the fore and aft parts of the hull are looking.
