BANYAN Posted March 5, 2014 Share #400 Posted March 5, 2014 That is so well detailed I am lost for words - excellent craftsmanship! How did you make the fine detail on the bolt heads? Are they individually filed/made? If so, you quality control and consistency is remarkable. cheers Pat Jeronimo 1 Quote If at first you do not suceed, try, and then try again!Current build: HMCSS Victoria (Scratch) Next build: HMAS Vampire (3D printed resin, scratch 1:350) Built: Battle Station (Scratch) and HM Bark Endeavour 1768 (kit 1:64) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tlevine Posted March 6, 2014 Share #405 Posted March 6, 2014 I don't know what is more impressive...the brass metal on the guns or the hardware on the carriages. Could you tell me more about the metal on the guns? I have never heard of "brass beaten metal".
