Just a stunning build Tom.
Boat detail a colouration/ weathering just spot on. Your water technique brings the models to life. The bank &flora/fauna just right in size, shape & perspective.
I grew up around the Grand Union Canal(Little Venice /Maida Hill tunnel, Paddington Basin) as a boy. Bombs sites and narrow/barge boats are my play history.
Thank you for giving me a wonderful (and so realistic)a trip down memory lane.

ps. I also enjoyed your build diary
