beefy66 Posted March 6, 2019 Author Share Posted March 6, 2019 Small update have been busy making up the base usual format for my builds kingspan and boxed off shaped to basic form and first layer of silicone to start off the sea Using cling film to seperate the hull from the base for now until I have the shape sort of right and then can paint before setting the hull. beefy 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Yes it is tall I wanted to give it the height so that when on the club display table people do not have to lean over the other stuff and risk catching other models beefy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Looking very promising, though I'm thinking the stern wake should be centred rather than from each corner of the transom.

beefy66 Posted March 27, 2019 Author Share Posted March 27, 2019 OK so after my little Jolly for Paddy's day I have tried to get back to this looking at the photos I have removed the rear waves and started again with fresh silicone And using a similar method to that used on Eskimo I have started to build up the forward waves And a reminder of the leprechaun before the mischief started beefy 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAYELL Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 The usual excellent wet look base spot on. Are the pale legs part of the costume? If so you need a refund😁 Cheers Keith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longshanks Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Been thinking about this .... Would that be the Hotel Ambassador in Benidorm? See how you got away with it now. There are more Irish Bars in Benidorm than in the whole of Ireland. Kev 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 The sea & those wakes is looking excellent Beefy, especially the bow on photo, it looks just like the photo I've thrilled to for over 50 years in my old copy of "The Battle of the Narrow Seas" , MGB 447 initiating a turn but pointing straight at the camera, looking awesome, just like yours in fact.
