Badder Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 (edited) Fantastic! I've only ever attempted one ship before, Tamiya's Prince of Wales, but I never got to finishing it. Can I ask you and all the other ship builders here, why you don't use fishing line for the rigging? There are lines called 'Flourocarbon Hook Lengths ' which are ultra thin.... down to 0.07mm diameter and they can be purchased on 10m spools or greater.

Terry1954 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 You should be immensely proud of this as your first ship build, it's really very good indeed. Top job. So what's next? Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-boat 55 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Looks great 🙂, did you have any issues with paint adhesion? I've heard Vallejo can be tricky, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Five Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Amazing, im always in awe of ship bnuilders. I get so tangled up in tiny PE and rigging mine have always ended up looking like ship wrecks more than anything. Look forward to seeing more.
