Nice job. As I promised, there is a note in your customer file for 10% off your next kit purchase.

I used the polycrylic on my LN, and just found it doesn't adhere well to anything- I had to mask off the ship to spray the bulwarks and it came off in many places with the tape, even over bare wood. Hopefully you have better luck.
I have used it before when fiber-glassing an R/C plane, and didn't have any problems. It seems to be sticking quite well here, too.

Looking good....like I said, the power tool helps a lot in the stern where the material of the carving tool mounting lug needs to be removed.

It looks like this is a fairly simple large scale model. The only real novelty seems to be that it is plank-on-bulkhead like their lobster boat rather than the normal Bluejacket solid hull kit.
You may be breaking new ground for MSW.
I have to chuckle a bit - older perceptions are sometimes different from reality. BlueJacket makes 78 model kits, and only 30 of them are solid hull, 12 are cast resin, 3 are plank on frame, and the rest are plank on bulkhead.

That tool will be real handy when you attack the stern......

Al's grinder is a Craftsman as shown in the photo below. Also here's a link to a Makita one on Amazon. They run from about $60-$120
