thomaslambo Posted January 21, 2016 #62 Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) Really nice details...where did you pick up the netting...the same place that you gave us the link to? Are you going to wait until the planking is done before gluing all the stuff in? Edited January 21, 2016 by thomaslambo Altduck 1 Quote Boyd Current Build - HMS Bounty - Artesania Latina - Scale1:48
cobra1951 Posted January 21, 2016 Author #63 Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) Cheers Boyd All the cargo is already glued in place, i had to do it before the middle deck is put in place as i needed to have access from above to drill the holes and fit the eye bolts. It should all stay in place as i used Araldite to glue everything except the sails. The netting is for 1/16th scale tanks but if you stretch it a bit it works well on this kit. It was obtained from eBay.co.uk from a seller named great-sales247 but they have withdrawn the listing probably because it's out of stock. They have a page on the US eBay site but it's only listing the chains and rope as well. It might be worth contacting the seller to see if he's getting more http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-16-Scale-CHAINS-ROPE-for-Rc-Heng-Long-Tamiya-Tanks-Vehicles-Diorama-/181976659687?var=&hash=item2a5ea776e7:m:m3ZAsGanxwwqtEurUzG-lbw Edited January 21, 2016 by Cobr@ thomaslambo and Altduck 2 Quote Bob Current Build HMB Endeavour - Occre 1:54 Completed Builds Section Deck Between Gun Bays - Panart 1:23 scale....x 2
thomaslambo Posted January 21, 2016 #64 Posted January 21, 2016 I had to do the same with my Captains Dining Cabin furniture. No way I could glue it in after the main deck went on. I actually used pins and epoxy to hold the furniture in...so far so good I have the cabin sealed shut with masking tape and used plastic wrap to cover the hammocks. I can't believe the amount of dust generated by all the sanding required on the frames and planking. Again, really nice details you put in the model as well as excellent placement Altduck 1 Quote Boyd Current Build - HMS Bounty - Artesania Latina - Scale1:48
cobra1951 Posted January 21, 2016 Author #65 Posted January 21, 2016 Ohhh yes lots of dust to come lol. Having stuff glued to the decks also makes it slow going when it comes to the hull planking as you have to be so careful I've also ordered some tables and benches to make a galley in the bow section of the middle deck rather than just have the stove there on it's own I will post a photo once i get them Altduck and thomaslambo 2 Quote Bob Current Build HMB Endeavour - Occre 1:54 Completed Builds Section Deck Between Gun Bays - Panart 1:23 scale....x 2

Nils Hi Nils Thanks for taking the time to help me with my rats I had seen these and i am thinking about getting them. As you say they are cheap so no risk. The only downside is they are 1/72 scale and will probably look like mice not rats on a 1/48 kit.

Nirvana Posted January 29, 2016 #87 Posted January 29, 2016 Cobr@, I think you need to put the rats on food-rations, they seem to be wellfed, considering their size and soon there won't be any food left for the crew. Unless as you stated, maybe feeding them to the crew. I like the setup with the cargo. Nice build. cobra1951 1 Quote Please, visit our Facebook page!
