    Many thanks Grant, Patrick, Carl, Rob and Denis,
    for your nice comments and words....
     
    Grant,
    agree, it helps quite well to compare with the own fingers...
     
    Patrick,
    pleased you like it, as you are the specialist for midget ships...
     
    Carl,
    the railings copper or brass will be painted in place, I`ll do some masking off along the decks before, before the wooden handrail goes on
     
    Denis,
    some of the blackened copper eye-bolts still require close-bending, but I must be carefull, as they sometimes break off, (this hapened a few times before already) and it is very tricky to place in new ones from under the deck (the end with the counter flat head).
    At least they do`nt "open" due to stresses in the wires. Next time I`ll use brass or steel ones

    For sure Omega. I'm  really looking forward to building the interior. I just purchased some yellow cedar which I hope will work well for the insides. I'm thinking walnut for the planking,  and cherry for the stern and keel. I've never built a ship before, but I think this one has just the right amount of details inside and out. Till next time gents...

    Hello Paul Carruthers,
     
    god luck with your build and enjoy it.
     
    Some years ago I also have modeled this kit. And I must say that it had been a long and very good time to model Pegasus. And if there are question in details its best to look into blue ensigns  build log. It's absolutely perfect.
     
    Cheers Angarfather

    small update :
     
    all the fastening points for the funnel guy wires are placed. In order to check if they go clear with the structures and they do`nt foul the vents and the boats, I put on preliminary thin polyester threads that resemble the tin coated steel wires that will be attached in their place and each one spanned with its own buckle screw. It looks like all is clear to go....

    I sincerely believe you are an even greater humble gentleman than extraordinary modeler, if that is possible.
    It's exemplary threads like yours that make me happy and proud to read forums like these.
