Hewy Posted October 1, 2019 Author Share Posted October 1, 2019 "Dinner is served" well almost , the kraken fodder awaits some finer details,and a dash of weathering, I've dispatched an order for some photo etch railings (suitably cheap,and any leftovers could be recycled on future projects I've also made some plasticine forms for molding the sails on, I'll use the tissue and pva method for this 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hewy Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 Ahoy ,I'm having a spot of bother with imgur at the minute I'm currently having a go with my phone to see it that'll work, yes it seems i have a temporary workaround there must be a problem with my pad , As you can see I've done a bit of rigging and attached the pva and tissue sails, a little tentical damage along the way too, a bit more rigging to go yet, Cheers 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hewy Posted October 7, 2019 Author Share Posted October 7, 2019 A sympathetic/pathetic (whichever you choose) rigging and railing job, (kriegsmarine modellers may recognise the railings) and a bit of a wash and flat coat , i may leave the etch unpainted i reckon, the beastys tenticles will be thoroughly mauling it anyway, I'm calling the steamer finished for now, its bound to need fettling later, and I'll move on to the fun part ,the creature,i recieved my model clay sculpting tool set from of the tinternet today, so i don't have to roll pork sausage sized tenticles and it "might" get a bit more detail Cheers all 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
