    Hello Antonio, and a warm welcome to the forum from 'Down Under'.
    "Acceptable quality" is what you think is acceptable for your model!

    For some reason I've only just caught up with your latest build, Eric.  I agree that the humble work boats - large or small - have a special charm that their more glamorous sisters can never emulate.

    We are searching for a suitably sized cat figurine, John, because we agree with you.

    That dinghy looks good, Craig. I'm afraid your model will never be truly complete until you add a model of Archie to join the other two crew members.

    Jim Lad reacted to Mirabell61 in ERGENSTRASSE by Mirabell61 - FINISHED - 1:87 - steamship   
    Many thanks for you`re compliment John....
    I just came from the copy shop and placed an order for the shipnames and homeport (aft rounding and forecastle sides). The lady said it would be best to print in white on black self adhesive foil. See what comes out when finished...
    The pics are showing the cutting of the 30 x 50 mm plating pannels with the paper table-guillotine, while the siliconed paper protection foil is still on. The gluefilm is acetat and it sticks like hell. A tool is actually required to remove the plating again
