    Oh my, it is very small! Until I looked at the photo of you holding it, I was thinking it was about 10- 12 inches long. It must be less than half that. Admirable work, it looks very good.

    Thanks Jack and Matt, I'm feeling the same about them, definitely enjoying them more than I thought I would! I removed the moldings in the previous post as I didn't like them, made some more and started on the columns The top and bottom pieces were a bit of a test for my eyes! Thanks for the likes, comments and looking in. Cheers Edit: can the carvings be retro fitted after everything else is done??

    Totally agree with the above comments, it'd be a real shame to hide your hard work. Was this an early tank? I ask because it has a very primitive look about it. Looks good though!

    Thank you nzreg and Scrubby, and thanks for the likes. I spent a couple of hours on the roofs, shaping and tiling them. I painted them in tamiya rubber black as it not jet black, and drybrushed with dark grey. on to scraping the fancy moldings. Thanks for looking in. Cheers

    This boat was built by the man who built a lot of the fishing boats in Sheringham, and was commissioned to build this lifeboat by the Upcher Family. He based it on the very successful fishing boats used, as it was a private lifeboat, not crewed by RNLI, who had their own craft a little way south, but by the fishermen themselves, so they would have known how to handle this type of boat. Thanks for your interest, any input, comments and lifeboat info is happily welcomed. Cheers

    So, the QGs are progressing, with some very cautious ungluing and re-gluing, the windows are so fragile 😳 I'm totally in awe of everyone who's already done this part, and made it look effortless. the roof is not glued on, just placed on to see. the opposite side is better, and with a touch of colour. I have several areas of planking, mainly between the gunports that have been, or need removing, mostly like the two in the above photo. But I'm moving forward on the build😊 thanks for the likes and looking in. Cheers

    Quarter galleries are started, I'm so glad I purchased the laser cut parts for this chapter😊 note to self is do more dry fits before gluing 🙄 some sanding to do, but I'm pleased with myself upto now😉 Honestly though most credit must go to Chuck's very detailed instructions! Thanks for looking in, the likes and comments. Cheers
