  1. Ive finished the boat for the most part and decided to try a water base to display it on. I really didnt know how to do it but figured any major mistake was a layer of primer away from a distant memory lol. The method i chose used insulation foam and drywall mud. After that i primed it with white acrylic paint and started adding layers. After a decent base coat was finished i sprayed it with lacquer gloss to seal it in and then kept painting on top. Another gloss lacquer clear coat provided a perfect surface to dry brush the peaks. Overall im thrilled with how they both are turning out. I still have to attach oars correctly and build frame and enclosure, but these pics will give you an idea.
  2. Took a bit of a hiatus, but back at it again. Completed the masts and spars and got to take my first stab at sewing my own sails. Thank god for youtube 🍻

  4. Added the rudder and some railing details. You cant even see the deck planking anymore, the layer upon layer of details on the deck are really interesting to look at. Thoroughly enjoying thids model.
  5. Thanks guys, its a really cool kit. Learning different aspects of the hobby that i didnt get into much on the first build.

Some pics of the saturn and tower first... Just because lol. Im waiting on the led spotlights to arrive in the mail.
