Hi All,
I made a post that weekend as I am a complete novice and was discussing maybe doing the HMS Victory build. However, in my eyes that was a big project to take on first time round. Therefore, whether its the right thing to do or not I have decided to do the much smaller HMS Endeavour Long Boat. And then go from there.
As you probably know this is a Artesania Latina model. How is the painting on these models done. Are you pointed at to what parts to paint and what colour?
And my next genuine question is what is the best place to buy models paints for these kind opf ship models
Regards
Chris

 Hi Chris Its a great choice and will introduce you to planking, rigging and mounting sails all good skills to get under your belt. The painting is done using either acrylics colours and Varnish some builders also use Danish Oil instead of paint or varnish. The full kit will have AL'S instruction booklet with all the paint needs listed, I have provided a link to CMB where there is a good list of paints suitable for your needs. http://www.cornwallmodel...ralty_paints_water.html
regards Andy  Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .
