That rigging is amazing. Cool Thought my tablet screen was cracked at firstBigGrin
Man he took his time in the sun
Had a dream to understand
A single grain of sand
He gave birth to poetry
But one day will cease to be
Greet the last light of the library...We were here!

The railings are a little time consuming but a warship looks naked without them.





I wanted the name plate to have the same warn look as the ship. It was painted black then a brass oil was used to cover the whole thing. finally I buffed the paint with tissue to give it a warn look.



Thats it, My build of the year entry done.

A BIG thanks to everybody who followed along and shared their thoughts along the way.

now to plan next yearsLOL LOL LOL LOL LOL Flapper

NOTE it was only while posting these photos I noticed that one of the railings had fallen offCursing it will be replacedBlushing
