Jparsley reacted to NMBROOK in MORDAUNT 1681 by NMBROOK - Euromodel - 1:60 - Beyond Bashed
One mini project I have been working on in conjunction with everything else,is what will be the floor of the balcony.I mentioned earlier that this was a grated deck,but I wanted something a little more visually appealing.
I have prebent a piece of 1.5mm Ebony on a jig and this was secured at the ends with some scrap boxwood and cyano.I have then tiled the upper surface with 4mm square boxwood and ebony.I haven't photographed the manufacturing techniques for this as it is covered in many other logs.A propose to apply a few light coats of Poly prior to removal and shaping.
Kind Regards
Nigel

Ok guys after inspecting all these wonderful ships on this site I decided to darken my planking a bit Using a sharp pencil I traced over my planks then I used an ordinary eraser to remove the darkness some I've posted a before and after on how the planking looks any ideas?

You know mark it's such a shame to cover up such beautiful detail but to have an open sided ship also to me looks strange the knowledge of knowing the ship is built with such love and detail will spur your heart on to make grander undertakings She looks great best of luck to you

Thank you so much tom I tried the square peg through the strip I tried cutting them like you did but couldn't line them up like I liked them they looked bulky to me so I figured I would go with something thinner I appreciate your comment to look at mine and yours it's nice to know you liked mine

Hey guys a very quick update started working on Not sure what they are called but first attempt was rather bulky and cramped together so I started to think Hum What do I have that could possibly look better Wa la tooth picks so I drilled sanded and came up with this think it looks much better and more proportional what do you think
