  1. No problem at all Edward Im just glad you liked it - it was a very passionate build set out as special work for the admiral, it was spured on by us both loving Pirates of the Caribbean films, and also getting its blessing from one of the cast who I chat to. It proved to me what you can do with plastic as it can work along side wood. OC.
  2. Would your deck planks not lightly sand up to smooth them slightly? I know in real life they would have had a lot of abuse and wear and tear, I always wanted to achieve a bleached aged wood affect on mine uisng the wire wool/vinegar jar system, then a few coats of flat clear to seal it all in. Not sure if that helps my friend. OC.
  3. Thank you James, she is a Beautiful kit very accurate and goes together so well. By the way Thank you for creating this section - it is becoming so popular with so many lovely builds. I mean - you should pass on to Chris. OC.
  4. Good evening all hope your all in good health, right then I did another hour on the spit, firstly I fitted the two ailerons straight forward procedure, then I fitted the wing tips - again glued straight on with no fuss, what amazes me is the scale cord thiness of the wings just like the real thing. OC.
  5. Thank you kindly, I thought the figures would give it some life - tried to represent the characters from the Film, will look forward to seeing what you do with yours. OC.
  6. Keep at it mark - you are doing a great job - you might have finished the tiles when the lock down is over, we should celebrate then - everyone round to yours for a few jars. OC.
  7. Excellent work greg - well and truly "well used" comes to mind. great work on all the detailing. OC.
  8. Let me put it this way - one of my fave bands of all time is Evanescence 😉 OC.
  9. Yep I relate to that mark, I have even seen then use small wooded chock blocks on aircraft moving surfaces in museums for the same reason I guess. OC.
  10. This is different and very different - I like it. shame you aint got any creepy figures to go with it. OC.
  11. Looking good denis - I know what you mean about the masks "Have I pushed it down well enough to stop leaking from the paint" trouble lifting them agian after a few coats of paint. OC.
  12. I will grab a propper seat now I found this I remember planking my HMS Greyhound kit - it sent me nuts and seamed to take years to get anywhere. OC.
  13. Thank you kindly ziggy, its inside a storage box at the moment waiting on some time for me to carry on rattle can spraying, it was getting on the admirals chest (not good) due to the fumes, I will crack on with it when its right to do so. Stay in good health and yours mate. OC.
  14. Very very nice - nothing wrong with that I would be really chuffed and happy like a happy dancing little Pirate. OC.
