Armed Virginia Sloop 1768 - Model Shipways - scale 1:48 [COMPLETED BUILD]

Looking good Zoly, the paint work really brings her to life, the red, black and the wood really blend in nicely, I'm sometimes wishing I had painted the RC with red bulwarks, ah well, maybe next time,

best regards John.
 
After installing the moulding on the poop deck/cabin and the step I gave it a good sanding with 220,320 and 400 grit sandpapers finishing with 3 coats of matte poly.

Very nice build, Zoltan. What is your plan for the hull - painted, or a lacquer finish.
 
Next step the gun carriages,I built one kit supplied gun carriage but it was not high enough,the cannon looked on it like shooting at stars.
