  1. Kevin your paint work looks so smooth and dust free please tell me its a trick of the light.     DEREK    :pirate41:

    yes it's a trick of the light

     

    but i have spent quite a lot of time trying to keep it tidy, but it starting to cause me problems, mainly with the black, the wale's and down to the waterline were done in Halfords spray matt black, when it comes to touch-ups i am finding the pots are very glossy, as you can see on the upper black areas.

     

    i lost a few more tiles last night, i dropped one of the captains entrance sides into the hull, and it bounced (laughing at me) all the way down to the keel. it's a big hull for turning upside down getting the dam thing out.

  2. Cat heads 

    As i continue working the stbd side, these were ok to build, but i either made a big fuss about nothing or they were just a pain to get the decorative strip under it, using the brass profile, it requires to be recessed into the upper wale, as well as running in all angles

     

    Stbd side decorative strips

    most of the brass profiles are now fitted between the upper gun ports,

     

     

    channels/allready fitted with dead eyes

    after repainting the ships side where necessary, i hope to have the stbd side fitted this weekend
