Thanks Gerrit, Hans, Alan Just a very small update while the camera was out- I have just finished the bulwark linnings and quarter deck linings both sides - didnt think i had the will to do more linings after the first hundred or so but I got through it. BTW, does anyone know if these linings are the same red ochre colour of the others? Regards Steve

Hi Stevie, Model looking great, a credit to you. May I make just one suggestion, could you do a tutorial on how you did the camouflage on the cat, really good.

Finally finished issue 60 (apart from the cannon ball holders at the bow). So now im officially at the half way point, well a little past half way as i have also painted the stripes I found these capping rails tricky to curve but managed it in the end- Quarter deck capping rails - and bow capping rails - i will be filling and repainting the joins at this part later - All masked off and ready for stripes! And here she is now with some touch-ups to come later, but overall Im happy with it. I may matt varnish the black though as i think the admiralty "Dull Black" paint is a little too glossy for my liking. More to follow soon
