Brian's 1/200 HMS Hood

[Bri62]

Some small progress, masking is a pain and something I don't enjoy.

 

[Bri62]

Finished fishing for this year so can spend more time on the Hood,

So you are just a match angler then? Or do you still have closed season in the UK? I used to love winter-fishing for Roach.
The boat is looking very good.

 

[Bri62]

Yes Ian match angling is what I like and tbh I'm getting too old for winter fishing (arthritis in my knees and hips) the cold seems to aggravate it

The boat is looking very good.

It's a ship submarines are boats lol

I knew I could get you to rise to the bait lol. I have not fished in ages due to the same reason. My last fishing was Carp fishing two three nights at a time. I think if I tried that now I would fall on my face the second I got up.

Coming along nicely Brian. I share your dislike of masking

 

[Bri62]

Some P.E. fitted

 

[Bri62]

Sooo small lol


Fitted the P.E. anchor chain run

 

[Bri62]

doesn't look like much done but it's all small stuff.

 

[Bri62]

More small stuff

 

[Ian M]

Always good when the decks start to be populated.

 

[Bri62]

Never have enough storage

 

[Bri62]

Won't be going anywhere today it's raining



Progress on the Hood is slow I seem to be waiting for things to dry all the time. I have to complete a page before I move on I think a little OCD I have lol

 

[Ian M]

I can understand why you fish, living right on the river like that! lol

 

[Bri62]

Did a bit this morning.

 

[Jim R]

What a fine,neat job you're doing on this. So many very small parts to assemble, paint, dry and fit.

I'm the same Brian - I have to do things in a precise, systematic way. Drives the wife mad at times
