  1. Thank you! Usually I use one layer of paper tissue and pva glue watered down. Wet it and try to pose to look realistic. Then painting with acrylic paint as a base but in most cases I prefer oil paints to get final result. Hope that will help ! Try it ! It’s really satisfying technique and not too complicated!
  2. Working on details of the decks before I can glue masts permanently. Still way to go but I wanted to share progress. Not a lot left from the kit, everything is scratch build.
  3. I think I more or less finished the deck construction. Most deck furniture is placed there only for photos. Whole Endurance will be weathered but this I left for last… I found that the bow is out of proportion in the occre kit and had to modify it slightly. Is it spot on? For sure no but I think looks better
  4. And first is mostly ready! Some more painting left but I feel I’ll do that when everything starts to get together
  5. Working on lifeboats … Upgraded a lot from kit one but I used kit rig to build the shell over it.
  6. And some progress on details. Doors and stairs are here for the photo and will be glued later on. Missing portholes, have to print them.
  7. Working on decks right now. I don’t like kit planks around deck so I decided to make my own… instead of bending whole plank I made a jig and I laminated thin strips. What do you think?
  8. This time bigger update. Construction is mainly done, final sanding and painting black. Am I happy? Not 100% but it’s looking good. I experimented a little to bring it closer to original but still kit have a lot of errors if you dive deep enough.
  9. A little bit of wood working… Trying to get close to original proportions. Missing lower railing.
  10. I spend some time trying to figure out bench/skylight. After few attempts and tests I think this is closest to original and possible to build. My main idea is to print the core and cover it with wood. I prepared rig to glue together four covers. Each window have grooves to position brass 0,2mm wires.
  11. Small progress… Interior cut away and place prepared for the engine and boiler. One deck planked and watertight hatches fitted. But a lot of work left to finish it up…
  12. I came up to the same conclusion as @clearway… Tomorrow print it and will see how it looks. 6mm diameter
