Hello Guest! There's a lot to look over, so sit back with a cup of coffee, relax and browse around. We have a great group of ship and boat modelers here, both newbies and old salts, from all over the world. Our goal here is to help each other, without criticism or rebuke. Both newbies and old salts alike can learn from each other. No one has all the answers. Our most basic rule is simple, respect for your fellow members and their opinions. And don't take yourself too seriously! wirewolf (John, AKA - Cap), Forum Administrator

The deck material is a wood called Mukaly at least that is what the kit manufactures call it. It resembles basswood or something similar. I used Minwax Driftwood stain on the deck. I applied it with a brush and then wiped up the excess.

Thanks for the comments James, I just wish I had made the open hearts for the stays instead of using the triple blocks which Corel supply.

John: Continues to be "outstanding" work. I will be referring back to these photo's for ideas when it's time to rig mine.

How did you get that great weathered look to the deck?

I like your canons and trucks. I've only gotten a fourth of mine finished and it seems like it's taking forever to do them.

Pete

BTW did you know that you can put your pictures in chronological order by numbering them?

Thanks for looking. This project made a really nice break from the larger issues of the Latham. It was a lot of fun.



Regards



Jim

Very nice... It's hard to get a sense of the scale, appears to be finely crafted but quite tiny based on the eyes and weight of the cordage.



I am really in love with nice small scale work.



Regards



Jim
