popeye the sailor Posted May 27, 2014 #1129 Posted May 27, 2014 come on Augie.............cannons aren't mind numbing.........they're a work of art! sure they are a 'mass production' aspect, but it's rather fun to add on the little baubles now, if you really want to drive yourself to new fits of madness........plank the deck!

augie Posted May 27, 2014 Author #1130 Posted May 27, 2014 Just a quick update. The inner bulwarks have been painted except in the Great Cabin where they were stained. I used 10 coats of diluted MS Bulwark Red somewhat modified to attain the red I was looking for (same as the gun ports). A coat of flat acrylic lacquer was applied as well: We'll now be turning our attention to the deck......but not before some (long delayed) domestic chores and a sortie to the hallowed fishing grounds are completed. I shall return with ....... ???????
