Looks a good effort and I hope you've enjoyed it so far.
That exterior trim corner on the bath looks a bit sharp - I tend to bend the trim around.

I did a very similar job a few weeks ago and rather than take the chance with 'L' shaped trims I fitted Box shaped trims where I could use matching 'plug in' external corners.

Doesn't that make stress marks on the trim?

Schluter sell a tool specifically designed for the job.

For bending a normal trim to a right angle?

There may be many bits I have done that some may look in horror, but i think it looks great. I did it myself so it's bloody marvelous

what size trowel didu use don't see any addy throught the joints did u dot n dab?

 

[scotmk]

I started off with a 10mm trowel, but the walls were not as straight as should be also there was a difference in thickness from the backer board to plasterboard areas and the partition wall not 100% 90° to the wall. So have dot n dabbed a lot,have used a good amount of dot n dab, not just a little on each corner, have used as much as would have been trowel on,they are solid not gonna come off.

The big walls needed to be straight as having fitted units along 2 of the walls both base and wall.
