Hello shipmates, Brian-Mike, I thank you for visiting my build log and also for your likes. The things in the shipyard are moving slowly.. Weekend udate.I constructed the chimney, the Mantua didn't come with any clue on how to install the four rings on the chimney. The kit's handrail stanchions are not of my taste. They look fake.So i decided to cut some stanchions to construct a base for the 4 rings of the chimney. I also start to assemble the windlass. Further more I constructed the Radar too. And finally finishing the quarter's deck house with mahogany varnish, also I put transparent pieces (it was not included in the kit)of plastic to simulate the glasses of the windows. P.S. I decided to change the portholes with better quality products http://www.rbmodel.com/index.php?action=products&group=048 Kind Regards Dimitris

Hello shipmates! Elia thank you for visiting my build log and also for your likes. Mike thank you for your kind and encouragement words and also for your likes. Edwin I thank you also for your visits to my build log and for nice and encouragement comments. And of course for your likes. Lawrence thank you for your likes for visiting my build log and also for your very encouragement and nice words about my work. Now regarding the painting of the ship I use Vallejo model air with an airbrush.The primer was not Vallejo and on the second white stripe i noticed that the paint did not seem well attached. So i decide to remove the paint and applying a Vallejo surface primer that is surely compatible with Vallejo Paints.Also I noticed that Vallejo primer has more sticky texture. (Just in case to avoid future problems). Cheers Dimitris
