  1. Great 👍 do you also deliver milk in Verrebroek Belgium? if so, 2 bottles of milk tomorrow please 😇
  2. First of all, thanks for following, likes, and the nice comments. Vacation over, so back to work on Mary (some of us). As mentioned before, applying masking tape to clinker planking is not convenient. And as rightly noted, they didn't have masking tape back then either. So everything is drawn and painted freehand. Materials used: Tamiya paint, paint markers and Danish oil. If you are right-handed, it is easiest to always paint the left line. The colors are applied step by step. The cover of the book serves as a guide, but was not followed completely. Port side serves as a test side. So starboard still needs to be done. That's where we are now All "untreated" wooden parts are provided with a layer of Danish oil. No white below the waterline. The original may or may not have been painted white. None of the ships on the Antony roll have a white underside. This is how the tree nails are most visible.
  3. thank you all Meanwhile painting has started. And we just got back from vacation. First mowing the lawn, weeding, cleaning the car, refilling the fridge... Applying masking tape to the clinker planking is a hopeless task. so everything will be "free hand" painting. more later
  4. The hull is planked. A milestone reached 👍 7 work days in a row. In my younger days, I had a system like that too. 7 days from 14 to 22. 2 days rest 7 days from 6 to 14 2 days rest 7 days from 22 to 6 3 days rest. tiring, but it paid well.
