Panteg Models Posted October 25, 2023 Author Share #31 Posted October 25, 2023 First test coat of paint a little more filler and sanding required , although conscious it's a fishing boat and needs to be rustic. yvesvidal, Paul Le Wol and JacquesCousteau 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yvesvidal Posted October 29, 2023 Share #34 Posted October 29, 2023 Beautiful finish. I love the fact that you can see some wood through the paint. It makes the model so much more realistic. Yves Panteg Models 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobG Posted December 16, 2023 Share #58 Posted December 16, 2023 I just found your build log of this model and you're doing a fantastic job. She looks great! I love these working vessels and this one is a beauty. I think Billings Boats has some very interesting models but the instructions look very brief so I've been hesitant to try one.
