Hi Pete it won't be a walk in the park that's for sure but I try my best to do a good job.That does look a nightmare to paint, especially with a brush.

Coming from you a master boat build Chris is praise indeed thank you.HI Pete an exselent build an very nice detail
chris
Thank you Peter much appreciated.Blingtastic!
Thanks Mick there better than nothing, neither am I it will be slow going with very gentel touch in places not to knock of all the etch, any volunteers, anyone, come on submit your name rank and serial number and I'll get back to you, thank you.Wow Pete she looks superb, your replacement parts look really good, I don't envy you the painting.
Cheers Ron, I don't mind 1/35 photo etch but this about my limit, as for nooks & crannies I don't fit any I wondered what those bits were left in the box the instructions don't show rigging so must of left port with out it .Very nice build Pete. How you folks do P.E. (any P.E.) is a mystery to me. Thank goodness I don't use it!
You will have fun painting into all those nooks and crannies. I don't envy you one bit. I'm sure you will do a great model justice.....Then there's all that juicy rigging......
Chin up Pete, it's only a bit of plastic......
Cheers Ralph, pleased considering what's happen recently.Very nice finish Pete .
Pete there is no need to apologise in my opinion I think you have built an painted a very nice model an i would be proud to have it sitting on my sideboard just have to move the white ensign as i think it should be flown from the foremast /mainmast or from the stern but brilliant model an nice to see another ship build very well done indeed sirHi I've managed to get the hairy sticks out and final finished this one.

First off I apologise to all the real ship & boat builders for the above.
Thank you for looking in and having a look.
Pete.
Hi Chris thank you very much indeed very nice of you to say so, as for the flag the instructions said it went there, there a picture of it on page one right at the beginning maybe it wrong ?Pete there is no need to apologise in my opinion I think you have built an painted a very nice model an i would be proud to have it sitting on my sideboard just have to move the white ensign as i think it should be flown from the foremast /mainmast or from the stern but brilliant model an nice to see another ship build very well done indeed sir

Yes Pete you are right its what intructions says my apologies but from what ive seen when in portmouth lookin at the real R/N ships the only flag flown from the bow jackstaff is the uinion flag but maybe im wrongHi Chris thank you very much indeed very nice of you to say so, as for the flag the instructions said it went there, there a picture of it on page one right at the beginning maybe it wrong ?

Cheers Mick I please with the out come and that's saying something.Lovely finish Pete, you've made a great job of it.
Thanks John this is about my limit with PE, the eye sit isn't what it was, but with my new magnifying glasses who knows .Late aboard Pete sorry, but since my run in on 570's sub when he threw me and Polly off I've been weary about all floaty things, any way it's not painted 4 BO.
How on earth did you manage that PE , looks brilliant but would defeat me from the start .
Looks a great build, definitely think those masts look the part, if you hadn't mentioned them don't think I would have realised .
All done with mirrors and bad lighting and a camera.I don't know how you do it Pete with a hairy stick. Very impressive. Hopefully you will do another one soon
