Honza_H Posted November 20, 2019 #1 Posted November 20, 2019 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. Finished deck planking. I'm not complete sure about color of bulwark. Please do leave suggestions and tips, I’m new to this. Ian_Grant, Old Collingwood, DanielD and 3 others 6 Quote

Matrim Posted November 20, 2019 #3 Posted November 20, 2019 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. Old Collingwood 1 Quote ...
ccoyle Posted November 20, 2019 #4 Posted November 20, 2019 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. OC.

I made it from components, that I have shortened and assembled together. SUBaron and clearway 2 Quote
