Hubac's Historian Posted January 3, 2020 Share #1861 Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) To be honest, I wasn’t 100% sold on adding the lion mascaroons, but now that I see them in place I really love them! I agree with you that they tie-in nicely with the whole decorative program, and now the lantern looks a part of the ship, IMO. Great work!!

Hubac's Historian Posted January 6, 2020 Share #1863 Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) I just thought that you were doing such an incredible job of up-grading the kit. I wanted you to finish with a flourish befitting of all the excellent work you have done, and now you have. Well done! All the best, Marc Edited January 6, 2020 by Hubac's Historian EJ_L, popeye the sailor, md1400cs and 1 other 4 Quote We are all works in progress, all of the time.

md1400cs Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share #1864 Posted February 29, 2020 Hi Mates, So at last I finished up the re-install for that lantern that has been sitting around for a while. Here are a few images to completely put this log to rest. That Taffrail is really "sad" I was tempted to pull it off before re- installing the new lantern - but - "done here". Need to finish my Trinidad current build - and then much looking forward to the Viking ship under my table. That one will be something totally new for me to learn about. Will also keep areas unpanelled and open to show some hull and interior sub deck construction details the vikings used.
