That's some very nice paintwork on the details.

Hi all well all the detail painting on the hull is done.

I've glued the cannons on the sinking side as when it's attached to the base I think it would be very difficult.





Added to the base, need to get some more Poundland bathroom sealant now for the sea

The model is one thing, the water sculpting is something else! 8)

This landlubber is feeling a bit seasick just looking at it, so realistic is the appearance.

Wonderful work on those waves!

Hi all next update





I was going to add some stays but Airfix would have you use the God awful plastic coated cotton ratline thingies so no hole through the crows nest



Wish I hadn't added the main stays now as drilling out the holes in the crows nest will probably slacken them all off
