marktiedens Posted July 20, 2020 Author #181 Posted July 20, 2020 Hi - All the side mouldings are now on,along with the gallery window frames. The decorative mouldings are supplied as laser cut walnut & are extremely fragile - I broke each one at least 3 times just cutting them out of the walnut sheet & smoothing the edges! Some of the laser cutting does not go completely through the sheets. I managed to get them glued back together & on the ship,though. After that the upper hull painting was finished up. and..............the fenders,chesstress, & steps were added The fenders & chesstrees were laser cut & just needed slots filed to fit over the mouldings plus a little filing to fit tight to the hull. The steps were made from 1x1 & 1x2 strips glued together & filed to shape. Thanks for looking in! Mark chris watton, Tom E, BenD and 14 others 17 Quote current build - HMS Vanguard - Model Shipways

marktiedens Posted September 6, 2020 Author #193 Posted September 6, 2020 Hi all - been absent for awhile. Kind of lost my mojo for a while after doing some major storm clean-up plus some minor damage control - slowly coming back now. I managed to get more of the stern trim painted & installed. The castings were well done & I decided to add some color to them rather than paint them all yellow ochre - much better looking, I think. Thanks for looking in.

marktiedens Posted September 7, 2020 Author #203 Posted September 7, 2020 Thanks O.C. I don`t care much for painting,especially figures,but it has to be done.

ASAT Posted September 8, 2020 #204 Posted September 8, 2020 Mark, the quarter galleries and stern came out great, I have yet to tackle that aspect of building, I have seen it done well and.... well, you know. You must have been planning for this from the beginning, as they look symmetrical and correct. Well done!

marktiedens Posted September 8, 2020 Author #205 Posted September 8, 2020 Thanks Lou - I usually have problems getting all the stern parts to fit right,but it`s all fitting together pretty well due to the good design & accurately cut parts.
