Hi Guys Another small update on my build just finished pack 10 mainly bling. Some of the decorations are a bit dark not used to using the blackener (Practice make perfect) although I am happy with them.

Hi Guys Got pack 11 today full of bling and more bling. one small problem with issues 116 and 117 the instructions indicate that there should be 5mm dead eyes when in fact in both packs 116 and 117 they are in fact 4 mm. Not sure how that will pan out once I get to pack 12 and all the rigging I could at worse use the wrong size dead eyes. have to wait and see. Another thing there is a lot of brass there to blacken the stuff I use seems a bit expensive "photoetch burnishing by AK interactive" does anyone know of an alternative? Thanks for looking I will put up some more photo's after fitting the bling Thanks again Rgds Terry eebygum attached the following image(s): FINISHED BUILDS---- HMS Victory--Bismarck--Battleship Yamato-D51 Steam Train--Pocher Ferrari Testarossa--Soleil Royal--Schnellboot S-100--StageCoach 1848--HMS HOOD-- Delorean (Back to the Future)

hi Guys Another small update takes my build to completion of stage 11, waiting eagerly for stage 12.I think it's going to be the hardest (for me anyway). I have started building the stagecoach in between stages of my SR build. I will put a build diary up as soon as I can get those pesky wheels to bond together. Thanks for looking as always Regards Terry eebygum attached the following image(s): FINISHED BUILDS---- HMS Victory--Bismarck--Battleship Yamato-D51 Steam Train--Pocher Ferrari Testarossa--Soleil Royal--Schnellboot S-100--StageCoach 1848--HMS HOOD-- Delorean (Back to the Future)
