1/48 Winchelsea by Dave S


Recommended Posts

Decided to work on the quarter deck before working on the fore deck. Made a bit of progress the last few days. The joinery on the planks still gives me fits but the look makes the effort worth it. Need to get some grating and a ships wheel ordered.

She’s coming together nicely Dave. Your planking looks really good. Definitely worth the headaches!

Started on quarter deck railings. Sand, paint, sand, paint. Wanna get these right. As Chuck pointed out they are a big focal point on the finished model

Started fitting railings. I'm finding it a little fiddly keeping everything lined up and plumb. Just taking my time and I've got my trusty helper making sure things look good

Finishing up the quarter deck railings. Got some gaps to fill and some more sanding and painting to do but I'm happy how it turned out.
