I’m waiting on paint and primer. So I’m back at mangling my crew uniformity.  Been trying to figure out the correct uniform.   I’ve seen all white with black kerchief. Or blue jacket and blue pants. 
By the time I get the uniforms correct they’ll be FAT from so many layers of paint. 

     And hats?! Oh boy. Still have no idea how to make those.

This is still the time of no uniform for the seaman 🙂 Preferred color blue and white, but not as uniform but as the purser usually bought larger stocks of cloth to be sold at the sailors and therefor som uniformity came into the game. But on the other hand plenty sailors wore their privat cloths, thus giving all shades of contemporary colors.

 

Marines were more disciplined in that sense, sometimes were more regulated, as were the midshipman and officers.

Professional modeling must take priority.  I haven’t touched my Vic’ for a month. 

…waiting for paint and parts anyway. 
   Be it from the 1700’s or 2035 it’s still a ship of sorts.   Happy modeling guys!
