Mine all came in the box, i know some trumpeter kits dont come with enough railings but you usually get the main deck and nothing else, i would look on fleabay youll find some there and a set would give you spare, always worth having.

Thx Mark just ordered some Eduard 1/350

 

[Mark1]

So ive got a bit more done,the scratched foreward mast is fitted so at least it will take some rigging unlike the floppy kit supplied one, boats fitted, props are on, just anchors and chains and four ladders left to fit and the build is done . Continuing with the weathering after that and then it shouldnt be to long for the completed section.

Bout time i made the final push to get this finished, rigging has been done and ive had a go at adding some insulators to it using pva mixed with vallejo black paint, dont look to bad for a first go, just the flag to go now

 

[Bri62]

Wow Mark that's absolutely brilliant mate love the rigging.

Superb! As an aside, Jack 'Boy' Cornwall hailed from East Ham along with several other VC holders - we (the Royal British Legion and the local authority) dedicated a memorial to them at the Central Park War Memorial, a very moving ceremony!
