thw middhips boat raft is made up, ready for painting the forward wheel house is still getting attention, having learnt to solder on the bluebell build it has paid dividends on the brass canopy
having taught myself the basics of soldering, the canopy over the forward wheel house was built up, the instructions say glue, which give a rubbish result IMG_9351.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte) IMG_9352.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte) the funnel was stripped back and new rings made IMG_9360.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)
the derrick mast was made twice as i read it wrong and completed it 40mm to long IMG_9391.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)
and stern railings are now in place and after davits made up IMG_9397.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte) nowhere as good as @Joachim, but im happy with her IMG_9396.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)
A very exquisite dustbin, Kevin. With adaequate camouflage. Does it belong to the town council or is it yours? In Germany it is "verboten" to abuse dustbins. Over here they would definitely put you in chains for an act like this.
Like your boat. It gets better every time. The little details make a lot of difference.
Happy Eastern, Jörg

the refuge collectors find it quite amusing, i wont tell you what i did with another one, i might just be locked away and the key thrown, and yes it belons to the council, not mine
My AV continues to build up, however everything added now will be in my way in a few months when i come to rigging IMG_9479.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte) IMG_9484.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte) IMG_9488.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte) IMG_9514.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)
Don`t fret, Kevin. When you settle down to rigging, put a towel or some other piece of cloth on all these items. Then the job will go smoothly. Anyway, she looks better every time you take new photos.
Greetings Jörg

Thank you perhaps a step to far with the colour scheme, but no one will ever see it when completed anyway
