John Murray Posted Thursday at 09:13 AM #1 Posted Thursday at 09:13 AM HI all, I have had this kit for several years now. I needed a challenge right now to help me cope with mental health issues. I have been following Olha Batchvarovs build of her kit of this model. I finally broke it out yesterday and this is the result so far. The basic skeleton glued up. I am leaving it to cure overnight. dunnock, wvdhee, Knocklouder and 4 others 7 Regards John Current builds: Victory Models HMS Pegasus Builds on hold: Model Shipways 3 Kit Combo for Beginners. 1/48th HMS Echo Cross Section by Admiralty models.

John Murray Posted 7 hours ago Author #6 Posted 7 hours ago The last few days have been spent cutting some basswood filler blocks for the bow and stern. Being the first time I have used this method. I learnt a valuable lesson. In future, trim as much as possible before fitting them in place. Save hacking, cutting and grinding them to shape with my Dremel before I can use my Perma-Grit Tungsten Carbide coarse files top start shaping the bow and stern. So far, the starboard bow has been roughly shaped.
