builds coming along really well Paul and you have done a good job on the planking, i have always found it easier to cut the planks up into shorter lengths so they would cover about 4 or 5 frames depending on the size of the model or if you wanted you cut measure them to scale. anyway with the planks being shorter they are more managable and i could place them in a jug of water to soak them and then i used a soldering iron to help bend them over a small block of wood with a couple of curves cut out of it so that i had something to help shape the plank and slowly get the curve i needed, it does not matter if you dont get the full curve straight away i could just place it back in the jug to soak and go back to it later.
hope this helps those of you starting this cos its a little late for you know paul as you've got it covered
cheers steve
