Started to build an oil tanker, just for fun, no plan, just make it up as I go!!

Well I'm halfway finished, or so I thought, I'm now on the finishing off stage, but just when I think I'm there i'm not,I have now resigned to enjoying doing anything with it.

Has anyone any advice or support for this build, maybee I should have got a plan!!!!!

Steve there are hundreds of oil tankers outon the sea so who is to say what is right or what is wrong .Just google OIL YTANKERS and i guess you can see what matches yours the closest and go from there .

How about some pictures of it then? Very few modellers ever build tankers, although in many ways they are easier than other types. Also, what era is is?
