Hi Mike, I am enjoying the HMS Victory very much and I know your Gallery will add to that. Mike do you have any tips on the painting of the Cathead's Crowns and also the Entrance Canopy.

Hi Lawrence, I will send you some photos of the cathead crowns, with the Canopy paint all the parts black and highlight the raised sections in gold, you could paint the crown over the entrance red white gold and blue is my suggestion?

Kind regards Mike

Hi Mike

Your brass sure looks good; are you going to spray or brush the yellow on, just curious.

Hi lawrence, first I will mask the brass so I can paint in a black line along the top and bottem edges (the black line goes in the middle) then I will paint the yellow ocre.

Kind regards Mike
