After biting my nails to the bone, finally had a bash at the bendy railings!
Followed Tim's advice and cut up the PE into 4 bits, also added ships boats
Railings went so,so but defo room for improvement!, both sides could have been done better. Get the hang off doing curves, but used pva which i think needs thinning a bit more?
Brush painted the shops boats using mr color mixed with there mild retarder. Need more practice using this or do i use vallejo for brushing, thats one to think about.
Finish line in sight!
