airfixpeter Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 I have built many of these large wooden Titanics but I have never built the full 100 issue part work that is complete there are lots of mistakes namely the color in the well decks but I intend to do the ship and its mistakes as I have never had the chance to so. I am on magazine number 6 and currently stands at I third of the length and two decks varnished and fitted. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airfixpeter Posted September 9, 2021 Author Share Posted September 9, 2021 Time to start on the planking the centre section is easy and after that I am concentrating on the stern as its the hardest. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
