The only kit I ever built in 1/700 was a Dragon type 42 Destrorer RN, I had to fabricate the front bulwarks to replicate the only version to have it HMS Edinburgh, I never bothered with any PE for it as it was my first road back into modelling. Sorry for hijacking your thread mate. OC.

Evening all, a bit more progress tonight - I have been carrying on with the detail painting on 2nd and 1st KGL - takes so long even to work on Five at a time - the Sixth one is having some time out for swearing, lol - have also done a bit of shading on the faces - not quite as good as the Perry ones as the moulded details are not quite as crisp.

Evening all, right the table is in the box - will be tackled after the figures are finished - talking of figures more detail painting, I have been doing basically the same as the others Buff and Black coloured belts and Buff coloured haversacks, also I have painted on the shoulder ruffs with a few loaseded layers of Black paint.

Hi all, thanks for all the guesses - I should have more clear what they are - they are Two wooden farm kitchen tables with Four Wooden benches, The 2nd KGL found them in the Kitchen dragged them out and out them put them on the inside wall close to the orchard corner to get some hight for firing as @Edwardkenway said from the loopholes or over the wall. OC.

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
