Hello all
I found this forum while searching for information for a kit I finally bought. Looks like a great site!
So I'm getting ready to get ready.. to begin my next winter project. It's the 1:64th Bluenose by Model Shipways. I'll probably slowly start building sometime in September. In the meantime I'll do some research. My goal is to plank the model as accurate as possible and practical. I'd like to paint the hull in accurate colors and have the planking details show through. Much like the real ship I've seen in photos. So any help and guidance is greatly appreciated.
I've been building models and many other things my entire life. Yes, even as a baby with blocks.. lol. I've built quite a few wooden boat model kits.. If there's interest I can provide some photos .. a couple of them are plank on frame. They came out fine but I know I can greatly improve on my planking skills. Should be fun! And I do plan on finishing it! Really !!!
I will start a build log soon. But first.. I don't see the usual 'Star a New Topic' button inside the kit build log category. Such as the New Member category has the button. Am I doing something wrong? I know I'm properly logged in. It's probably staring at me in the face somewhere. A little assistance is appreciated.
Thanks
Terry
