Mr. B-Barge, what a piece of work!
Although I usually stick to not quite finishing aircraft, I am straying for a change to a ship as my brother bought me one for Christmas, (I chose it-he paid for it-I thought it would be a nice project for the long winter nights).
It's the frigate President by Sergal, (any comments on this kit anyone?), and so far I've completed the hull but am now about to start on the planking, (scary to say the least as other than knowing where the first plank starts I haven't much of a clue-no change there then! If you, or anyone, has any advice re. planking it would be a help, ie. do you start at the pointy bit and work back or the blunty bit and work forward or in the middle? (I haven't learnt all the terminology yet!!!)
Thanks, Steve.
