Shar2 Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 Boat now weathered. Now to do the crew and get them installed, then it's dress the boat with all the accessories and we're nearly done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shar2 Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 On the final straight now, should have it finished today. A few internal photos before I add the roof permanently. The now normal poster, this is a Vargas print of the era. Roof on, flag raised, only a bit more weathering to do once the forward and rear guns are fitted.

Shar2 Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 Ok, now the PBR is finished, it's on to work with this lot of resin. I've got a feeling I'm not going to finish in time as the end of the GB is pretty adjacent. If not, I'll just enter the PBR but continue with the dio anyway.

Shar2 Posted April 3, 2011 Author Share Posted April 3, 2011 Sampan painted, and I've made a start on the cargo. I'm using artists acrylics for this as I can leave the paint mixed on the pallet in case I need to touch a few places up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shar2 Posted April 5, 2011 Author Share Posted April 5, 2011 Finished the Sampan and small boats this evening, along with a couple of GI's, who will be on the bank and the Sampan crew. Now just three US rangers, 2 -4 VC and the dio base to go, and all in two days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
