Hi Alan! That stern is really coming together now and looking beautiful too. You were right about that gold paint, it really does look like the real thing, not too dull and not too flashy either! Well done M8!

So pleased I found this gold paint, highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic metallic look... love it..... .. Shudder to think anyone would wish to fire a cannon at my rear end.....  .. Thanks again Regards Alan
