  5. Right here we go . . . Just to remind you, started with this Bit of plastic Keep thinking the thread is a tad overscale but its 0.25mm dia which scales out at 18mm so I reckon its ok. Bands are self adhesive label sprayed and touched in with superglue Floating floor Spent ages trying to reproduce the netting - either over scale, to bulky etc. Finally settled on a simple platt Addition of some paddles ans container with water and safety equipment and were there ! Just need to tidy up the paint and start the second one They are stacked on top of each other so it only needs the basic shell Thanks for looking Cheers Kev

  10. Thanks for the comments Ray I don't know about tuition but two things I learnt in the last couple of days - the hard way ! 1. You can't glue painted plastic with plasweld 2. You can't do an oil wash on colourcoats enamel that's only had 18 hours to set The learning curve still continues to be quite steep Cheers Kev
