yeah, John, and especially in that tropical region. I hope it works out as this is quite a narrow gap between the margins for sewing something .... Nils

Update I`m planing to make and mount two awning-canvas-cloths on the bridge between wheelhouse and wing cabs. ( at least try to do it). Therefore each two rails with fastening eyes will be mounted. The wheelhouse ceiling is at the sametime also the planked monkey deck floor with the anchor bolt eyes for the front funnel stays. The railing to the monkey deck will be fitted later. Also there are now some short access ladders to the mid hold areas on the welldecks. Nils monkey deck platform rails with fastening eyes rails with fastening eyes for the awning boltropes short access- ladders to the mid hold areas

Valeriy, thanks for sharing your technique in applying the "putty-belts". I was`nt familiar with that methode before you showed it. You did a super job and its very inspiring and I asume it mut be a nice job for modelers who have experience and a steady hand with "Gips-Stuckarbeiten" structures. I am wondering if it may be possible to combine the way you do it and the way I usually do my hull metal-plating riveting Nils

right Keith, thanks for your word, I`m on the final straight right now, but still a lot to do. when the bridge is done, there will be enough to do, so that I probably wo`nt make it before the new year. There are several awnings to be made and mounted, as well as the deck above the wheelhouse and it`s railing. also all the small stiffening out elbows around the bridge super structure, the nav.lights, life saver rings, some lockers, etc ......

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.
