Muddy Stern before the sanding and priming. New rudders & original printed stern planes fitted and added for photos. Left muddy sometimes thinking it might be more instructional. Will add a towed array drouge to starboard horizontal plane tip. (according to stills from You tube videos below)
Have to be careful researching because Perle had her old front half replaced by Saphir's front end (ala San Francisco / Honolulu too). But photos of repairs are Perles original stern which wasn't replaced. Since Perles reactor core still had 'many more miles' available if you use tires for reactors analogy.
Oh dear! Why not print a new one? I like to get my hands dirty delicate child! LOL.
