After another week of getting messy with the wood dye, I have finally caught up with my latest issue. timbers to hold up the main deck are in, only touch ups to be done now until the next issues arrive. I shall attach pictures later today. Happy Modelling

that is issue 23 completed, a little bit of touch up required but that can keep me busy until the next few issues come. I think I have put in about 20 hours work in so far, still a very long wa to go yet Pinks666 attached the following image(s): Happy Modelling

I have just found out that not all people are able to post a reply to my build diary, please dont let this deter you from sending any feedback, please just PM me and I will reply as soon as I can. I have just checked and the next 4 issues were sent yesterday so I should be able to upload some updates over the coming couple of weeks. Enjoy. Happy Modelling

Have resolved this for you as this topic was not posted into the correct area of the forum. All should now be okay
