On the model, I showed a variant of opening the shutters of the gun port to ventilate the ship. Before the start of the battle, the gun hatch doors were fully opened.

Keith_W Posted December 5, 2022 Share #1063 Posted December 5, 2022 I am very late to this thread. I had a pleasurable few hours looking at the thread from the very beginning. Please allow me to add to the chorus of approval from the MSW community. I can barely believe that a modeller of my very modest skill is sharing a forum with a master artist like yourself. Everything you do is excellent, or beyond excellent. It is almost a shame to see you cover up your beautiful metalwork with paint. Please do continue posting, and I would love to see your other projects.

shipman Posted December 18, 2022 Share #1077 Posted December 18, 2022 Valerie, I was talking on the phone when your latest images popped up.....and I bit my tongue! Marvelous, BRAVO! Are your side rails twisted wire? I imagine they were chain on the ship? You and your work are a lesson for us all. Thank you for sharing your long adventure; no doubt there will be others to test your resolve.
