Rustyj Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share #31 Posted February 25, 2013 Three coats of gloss poly was apllied to the finishing resin to finish the outer hull. Then the coping was added to the cockpits and various pieces like step pads, lights, windshield brackets etc were also added.

Rustyj Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share #33 Posted February 25, 2013 Thanks Augie. Not really a fan of gloss finishes but it goes really well on these kind of models.

Rustyj Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share #35 Posted February 25, 2013 Hi Pat, I just have to find a free space to put it! Here I'm adding the trim that was cut from some bare metal foil.

jarero Posted March 1, 2013 Share #44 Posted March 1, 2013 Thank you very much. I'm glad you enjoyed her again. Just think if we could build that fast! Sounds like a challenge to me Really exciting to see this done. It is stunning! I almost pulled the trigger on a 1/8th scale, 1930, 24ft runabout Chris Craft this morning that was on sale. I hesitated and it is now on back order. Dang it! I know I will build one some day though. Quote -------------------------------In Progress Build:Robert E.
