Looks superb, the blue really brings the model to life. “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”

your colours look good but can i just say that the i think that the stern board may look better being planked horizontaly with thin strips of that out of scale decking that comes with some kits. i have seen close pictures of this on the replica ship. i purchased a hardback copy of hms surprise the complete story from amazon which supplies almost everything you want to know about this ship. yours is starting to look the part and i eagerly look forward to more of your built HMS Surprise
HMS Snake
HMS Bounty
HMS Royal Caroline
HMS Victory rebuild

My New Colour scheme, hope you all like them, the first red ochre was a bit bright, as you can see on post #151, this one is a dull red ochre. Star bored just needs a bit of a touch up, then it's Port side.   Regards
