Good work again Dan!!

Very realistic model of the Quad 40 mount. I like the blue sailors and the
way you have created the gun barrels. I guess you have put flexible tubes
inside. Are the barrels movable in elevation? The railing around the back is
also impressive with the innovative use of many small parts. I ask myself
what size will a complete ship have on which these guns can be installed.

Yes, the barrels have that magical flex tubing holding them together.  I added a
few more snapshots to answer your question about the gun elevation to the
gallery:

This ship is a Cleveland class cruiser from WW2.  It will be about 3 meters long
when built.
