Yep, green. A lovely shade of fraying fuzzy moldy green... maybe to resemble the algae found in aquatic settings

And looking at that picture it looks like good thread... but don't be fooled... it's true nature was soon revealed...

yup thats the same beautiful tread they put in the virginia box

 very nice Sjors seems you are on a roll now

i ll be following too   not sure when i l be ready for scratch building but its what i am aiming for too

thanks Mick

this is onlt my second ship. i did them on the virginia too but this one did mean a lot more extra work

there have been discussion on this forum about usign them or not as at the scale we are working at they would hardly be noticable. i did some tests on the parts of the decks that are not visible and after a few tries had somethign that was visibly pleasing to me so i went with it. I am considereing doing them on the endeavour on the hull too but i realise thats a lot more dificult then the decks

thanks Robbyn . the bar is always open for you and Sjors

Thanks Sjors. sit down and have a drink. ooh and once in a while if you hand me over a drink while you 2 are watching me sweating away it would be appreciated

thanks Mark. it was mainly to get Sjors drunk so he doesnt ask me when i ll start the G F

you can all join plenty of room

nope David

thanks David

next one :

small progress

have added the 2 front stairs

also working on the back railing and headposts of the 2nd deck. the reason why i start there as i delayed installing the paddlewheel so i have no fear of hitting into it when i am installing them.

HMS Gustav V

HI Piet

finaly looked though this buildlog too

what beautifult wotk you are doign on both ships

very nice . have a good holliday weekend

Thanks Randy . no its not Huge to me just when i noticed it thought how the hell did i do that. With the outer railing it probably wont even be visible .

anyway its not something i can fix without  dismanteling most of the ship and i aint going to do that
