Good evening from 'The Dockyard'. More progress made on fitting out the Junior Rates Accommodation space. Not many photos this week, but plenty of work involved to get to this stage. So the attached photo shows a scratch-built bunk, made from acetal sheet and square section, painted sky grey and fitted with a mattress, pillow and sleeping, off-watch, crew member.

Remaining mattresses fitted, with one folded down, as we used to do, to make a back rest and a turned back sleeping bag. All items were fixed using double-sided tape, which worked a treat!

That concludes this update. I have also partially painted 5 more crew members, fitted a hinge to the hatch, made up a few junction boxes, but none of these were finished, so will update in time for next weeks post. Thanks for looking, have a great weekend and happy modelling! Regards, Phil W.

Yes, i do spend a bit of time thinking about it all whilst lay in bed before i drop off. Recently, with the longer days, i have occasionally got up at 5am to crack a couple of hours in before i go to work! Crazy! But i feel the end could be in sight by the end of year!!! Regards, Phil W.
