its is all a matter of how you want to see her when completed, aged decks look great providing everything else is IMHO Personally i like the worn look as it hides my bad workmanship, i have my Victory link in my signature link -

Good evening everyone work continues as a when i have the opportunity, which is a lot more recently due to changes i have made with my free time, the superstructure has now got the wheel house fitted, i used two part epoxy for that, to ensure i had time to line it up bracing has been added under the boat deck, and more lighting, perhaps i am overdoing the leds but they dont all have to be on at the same time and they are adjustable brightness the cod liver house has been made ready, but at present i dont know how much of the step has to be removed as the rudder cables come from under there the colours are the admirals choice, being built for her, i even like the yellow, it will appear on a few things like the funnel gallows/otter boards still very much wip , the video explains it better than i could

Lawrence good evening since i changed my job 2 years ago, i have no travelling, a slightly lower salary and lost my just doing 4 day week, it is also a lot more tiring, as a result my post count has dropped tremendously. So a month or so back i kind of stopped all PC gaming and vowed to spend time on my builds instead, i am back now full of ideas and dreams of future builds
