Hi All, Thank you for looking in and for the kind replies. Just a small update today. I assembled the Quarter deck Bulwarks this weekend. I scribed the planking and added coffee stirrer detail. Once done, I painted it matt black & dry brushed with grey. I glued in some 2mm strips as a spacer. This should give me some room for lantern electronics. The stern piece is a bit short; I’ll have to lengthen it a little. Kind regards, Garth Garth attached the following image(s): "Measure twice, cut once!!!" Finished!!! HMS Victory, Current build: Black Pearl. On hold: Bismarck, Golden Hind, Flying Scotsman, Victory Cross Section, SOTS, Tiger 1. Wish list: USS Constitution.

Garth That is spot on with the black and then grey dry brushing. I have seen a few of these just painted black and they lack something. Yours looks really good and its all coming together so well. Tony Happy Modelling
