Hate to tell you Karl, but the stain on your gallery panel is on the wrong side, it should be on the inside surface

Its no big problem as the outside surface will be painted black later on, but you'll need to stain the inside surface if not done.

were up to week 42, and a fair amount of work to do. the bow beak head I digressed slightly from the instructions, I dry fitted the top and bottom formers, then glued the planks to the formers. I then removed when dry, and sanded away from the bow. undercoated and the black top coat was applied by airbrush.

Hi Karl, very nice idea of dry fitting the formers and planking in situ... Can see it would allow all the finishing to be done off the ship... Cool Cool .. Hope you don't mind if I follow your lead on this part.... Well done.....BigGrin BigGrin
