Kevin Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share #581 Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) To cut a long story short, i have struggled to get back into the build, to progress with her i have to be happy with what i had already completed the Gun port lanyards (to me ) never looked right, and i was contemplating ripping them out, but would have put replacements back in that were exactly the same, i read Gils log over the weekend, and it clicked into place what was wrong, they are too bright- and shouting - HEY - LOOK AT ME,, something as simple as that, the last photo taken out in the sun shine made it look even worse, although - lol it only seamed to bother me. i have toned down two pairs over the weekend and although i dont have the right colour wash yet, (working on that) they no longer shout I written this because - i love this hobby, but some times we doubt our own work- and it takes time to work out how to proceed Edited February 24, 2014 by Kevin Sjors, mtaylor, justsayrow and 2 others 5 Quote Its all part of Kev's journey, bit like going to the dark side, but with the lights on All the best Kevin SAY NO TO PIRACY.

Kevin Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share #593 Posted March 7, 2014 Hi Kevin Great job on you lanyards on your gun ports, they sure do look good. I did mine almost in the same manor using tubes cut from wire insulation. I think it gives a very nice of an extra touch, but replacing all of yours is a big job, but I believe it dose enhance the ship, making it look just a bit more like the real ship. ENJOY.

Kevin Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share #594 Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) Good evening everyone last weekend - was spent working out how much extra work would be required to complete the re work on the Gun port lanyards and weather it was actually worth it, the deciding factor was tha fact that as my lids are shut - they would make a drastic improvement - providing they were done better over the week i sourced some bigger wire 1.5mm and as a result the bore was bigger as well so the lanyards fit in nicely all the port side holes were redrilled to 1.5mm and then again at the angle of the lids them selfs, - it is hard to explain so i will let my latest pictures tell the story click on photo for bigger image Edited March 7, 2014 by Kevin Blue Ensign, mort stoll, realworkingsailor and 9 others 12 Quote Its all part of Kev's journey, bit like going to the dark side, but with the lights on All the best Kevin SAY NO TO PIRACY.
