Hi Mike!

I`m really trying to be patient here - but is there a possibility you could speed up with your tutorial a little bit?

I don`t think, we all need four days to paint six black squares.

This is just a kind request, as i know criticism will be deleted :)

Apart from the tempo your tutorial is of course very helpful!!!!

Thanks,
Walter

Good morning Walter, I am sorry for the wait, some members want me to slow down so they can catch up, others want me to speed up, it is trying to get that happy medium.

I will post some more today, once again sorry ehBigGrin Love Regards Mike

Great to hear that, Mike! :)

I will be moving my working space from our flat to the cellar in the next few days (making room for the next baby:) )

So i won`t be able to work on my build anyway.

Cheers,
Walter

FITTING THE GALLERY ENHANCEMENT

PAINTING

Hi Team, this is the latest session of fitting the Gallery enhancement.

This time we paint the black panels on to Ply 1a and Ply 1b (at the ends and between the windows)
Then we will paint the 3 more thin coats of black on the rest of Ply 1a and Ply 1b

First of all we mask the work, and apply the panels:-

PAINTING


Well team we have now finished painting all the ply panels in the kit (6 in all)you will see we can still see the grain running through the wood.
This is also the end of this sessionBigGrin I will leave you with three photos of how the side panels look at the moment, one of the photos shows the brass beading I have had made to cover some of the areas on the Gallery.

This beading is in the shape of a "B" and will be painted black in the groove and yellow ohcre on the curves of the "B" as on the real ship. More about that next time.You can use wood trim if you wish. Thank you for looking in. Kind Regards Mike
