puckotred reacted to Angarfather in Pinco Genovese by Angarfather - FINISHED
Ahoy, Mates,
Gianna is finished now. And here are some pics from yesterday.
To build Gianna has made a lot of fun. Now I will start the next model, the Statenjacht Utrecht.
Cheers Hartmut

The saga of lost proportions continues.
Stairs
Started the railing. The "Guardrail vertical parts" as the parts list state them, are made of really soft white metal. the wire is extremely hard. probarbly the best quality of the whole mess. Impossible to cut with pliers smaller than medium.
Guardrail primed. Stairs totally out of proportions.
Roof attached, LED's working..
The LED's shine through the roof plywood so I'll use sandpaper (grit 800) to simulate tarred paper that the original has.
Hull bottom first stroke of paint.

Thanks Burnside. There's still a lot of frustration concerning scale and accuracy. I've decided to try and not think about it and just go on building.
Lightning for second deck:
I suck at soldering but the wire is secured and glued to the wood. It isn't going anywhere...
Done at last
Awaiting third deck.

Building the benches in aft of second deck:
Lots of strips (1x1mm) to fit.
Staining. I apply the stain with a brush to give it a little weathering effect.
Next is varnish and then do the rest of the benches along the cabin walls.
Oh, and happy Easter!

puckotred reacted to michael mott in Skipjack by michael mott - 1/8th scale - SMALL - 19 foot open launch
John, Steve, Denis, Druxey, Mark, Lawrence, thanks for your kind remarks. A big thanks also to all who have visited.
The valves and lifters have been a tricky bit of work so far. Had to make a wrench for the reduced sized nuts.
drilling the holes for the taper pins to fix the cams
All the cams are now pinned in place.
here is a video of the valves in motion

Hi all
Well I had a go at painting one of the windows tonight.
I am not sure if the brown door is too dark any ideas ??.
It is Tamiya acrylic XF-10.

Hi all,
Just realized I have not thanked you for the comments. Stockholm tar, Nils, Nirvana, Uwe, Burnside63 and Clare: Thank you for visiting and commenting my log. And tanks to the others for the likes.
Now, curtains(?!):
Planking the deck is up next.
Stockholm tar, no rivets. So many details are missing and/or wrong on this kit so I won't bother with them.
