fabulous looking effort....the kit is an absolute **** and you are certainly making a silk purse out of a sows ear....

hi Bill...............its been that long since I did the quarter galley I cant really remember.....I did struggle a bit with it I think....more luck than skill on my part I think. I have also used corels gun ports...I just don't have the inclination to re-plank the hull....had to strip it once due to the wood fading as I had not worked on it for ages.....they look ok so I can live with them.

excellent Blue Ensign.....they don't stay sharp long but extremely useful.....not yet tried to restore the cutting edge on one yet but will try.

This will displease the purists but I don't have the time to take off or alter the planking and I think it would destroy the frames underneath so I have opted to use corels metal gunports not supplied with the kit......they come with corels hms victory and can be purchases separately but as things stand this is the only way Bellona is going to progress so love it or loath it I am taking this route. It is either that or Bellona stays unbuilt....onwards and upwards.....personally I don't think they look too bad.

I joke about the price in London.......send me your address and i'll post you a real English Ale....some of these breweries here have been producing beer for well over 200 years. Yes I miss flying the microlights....I was once at around only 500 ft when two RAF Tornado jets went underneath me, they didn't know I was there....that was cool....
