    I’ll jump onboard with Ross and say I appreciate an experienced builder taking time to share their techniques. Russ

    This has been a fascinating conversation about scale as it relates to paint. As a relative newcomer these are subtle details which would be overlooked by most novices I think. Very insightful! Russ
  15. Russ2025
    Really enjoying your added details. It all looks great to my eye, and it inspires me to follow your lead and add a few extras of my own. Looking forward to seeing the next deck. Russ

    I am familiar with the process of touching up the touchups of the touchups. The endless parade of cleaning brushes in my case. Your project is looking great ! Russ

    Cheers for that Ronald. It’s heartening to know that you are also working on improving your skills😊

    To follow up on the amazing work seen here by Ronald I am curious about your painting technique. I have been spending time looking back through your posts and may have overlooked something but do you paint entirely by hand or do you use an airbrush or a combination of both. Curious because as a newcomer I have no airbrushing skills so brush painting it is. I guess my question is do you achieve these incredible results using a brush only. Apologies if this has been asked before. Russ

    I have set up a section on my reminders app on my phone to keep track of the many tips, tricks, and products that appear while looking through everyone’s builds.

    There is a run on wax pencils at Amazon now!
  29. Russ2025
    What a great piece of advice. I hate the void! Do they leave much residue?
  30. Russ2025
    They have appeared. Cheers for that. I will follow along as I am considering the Adder some time in 2026.
  31. Russ2025
    I’m having the same problem. Maybe give it another go. Russ

    Managed to find some pictures online to confirm the positioning so I believe I am back on track. Russ

    Hi, you kindly provided a diagram of the main mast channels for me from the book- HMS Victory, her construction,career and restoration by Alan McGowan. Would you be able to provide a diagram of how the chain plate configuration looks. The plate positions on video 20 don’t look very elegant but may be correct Any help would be great. Hope your build is going well. Russ
