  1. i use an aliphatic cabinet makers glue.......it can be sanded when dry
  2. a while now since i completed my Bellona.....
  3. cheers....i dont get to hung up about accuracy and scale ....for me i just enjoy the build. Unless something on the model looks completely wrong I build as per the plans....the only thing I change is the rigging.....I always buy from ropes of scale to complete the model.
  4. my builds are full of mistakes.....knocks, scrapes, scratches, dints, ...i leave them in as it is the soul of the build....I hate to see a pristine build with no scratches and scrapes....mine have blood stains and errors to many to mention. For me it is the story of the build. The evidence of a builder putting everything into it......the errors and mistakes are what make the build personal.
  5. i have an old airfix kit of the Beagle which i am going to build with my grandson, but I must purchase the occre kit........is it a decent kit?
  6. adding the blocks and ropework to the yards seems a never ending task, but I am getting there slowly....very slowly..
  7. great build. Must try a Vanguard kit, but I have 3 corel kits to get through first, and that is after I complete HMS Endeavour which I am currently starting the rigging.
  8. cheers....my work is by no means perfect but i do enjoy what I do.
  9. masts now in situ......first couple of shrouds on either side.....let the rigging commence........getting closer to the dreaded rats...
