Hi Siara,

It's good to see you here at Scale Models.
What a job you have done on the railings, I tried and gave up, it just was'nt going to happen! I've used the Revell railings which have been thinned down to a more scale like thickness.
Have you had a look at Glenn Buckners build? Well worth a look for the rigging alone!

Sav.

Holes for wintergarten drilled.


Now im planing to paint the insides of the CT, before i glue top part to the bottom in order to connect the railings.

Thanks Mankster!

I came upon the stumbling block here. Dougie Martindale was kind to show me that picture:

...and im having problem interpreting it. Can someone help me out with some more shots of it, perhaps some drawings please?
Thanks in advance.
