Thank you to each of you for your likes and your comments, I've been looking forward to when I could hold Billy in the palm of my hand. I don't think display space is going to be an issue. Finishing the bow took me longer than I anticipated. Everything you see is attached. I wanted to paint the boiler deck so bad........patience self. Eric, Tom, and anyone else who saw in their minds a center located stairs, is this what you where thinking? Thank you to everyone for your support and for following along. And very special Christmas wish for good health and happiness during the holidays and the coming new year. Merry Christmas my dear friends, God Bless. Keith

Most European towns and their buildings are much much older than anything we have here in the Colonies. Because of the age of European towns, their original wooden buildings either burned down in fire storms or were destroyed by war. Because of deforestation rebuilding with wood was impractical thus stone was the logical choice for building material. It blows my tomato to see stone structures in Europe that have had constant occupancy since the 12th and 13th centuries.

Revell 1:96 Cutty Sark after-market decals?
Keith Black replied to Terry Lawson's topic in Plastic model kits
Terry, the best way to attach would be CA gel (super glue) IMHO. Make sure all is right before dabbing the plastic deck with the CA gel and then applying the wood deck. As far as decoration please resist adding treenails (trunnels/wooden pegs) with a pointed pencil. At scale one wouldn't see the wooden pegs. As far a staining or painting that's up to you the captain. -

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
