HMS Terror by Honza_H - OcCre - 1:65 - First wood model build


Recommended Posts

Hello, this is my first wooden ship build (and build log too). I came to this hobby with some paper modeling experience (mostly architecture) I hope Kit from OcCre: HMS Terror be a good start.

According to documentation provided at this site, Terror's bulwarks were painted yellow. The exact shade is not described, but the Admiralty must have had some sort of standardized color scheme for vessels of that type and period.

Great start,   I would have thought  yellow  ocre  as it was quite a standardized  paint.

Is that deck supplied like that? interesting...

 

With the bulwark color it is up to you. I tend to paint mine red ochre but if you like the color of the wood plain then that is fine as well.

 

 

No, deck is not supplied like that. I made it from components, that I have shortened and assembled together.
