Doing a 1:200 and 1:250 scale Great Lakes freighter. These are my 2nd and 3rd builds as well so experience is low.
I want to be as detailed as I can of course. The hatches on thix class are quite complex/detailed with what i assumd are supports for the coaming as well as having some piping on each side that run through the support structure. Model is solid wood hull and been using balsa for other details. Any suggestions on how to approach these aside from leaving out these details? I was planning on using some type of flexible metal tube or rod for the piping.....if I don't end up skipping it.
