Very nice!
HMS GRANADO - full hull - POF kit by CAF in 1:48 - by Uwe
For bigger parts (or longer work) maybe necessary - I use it regular, and had until now no problems like you described
It is smelling, yes - but I use it usually for the regular work only indoor....... and open the window afterwards to get fresh air
I am just catching up again on this. Just truly amazing details and the purity of the build. Very inspirational work and talent.

Have you tried Clou with boxwood, Uwe?
Clou and boxwood is a perfect combination.
This cabinet side I first lacquered with Clou, followed by some bitumen.
Good morning Uwek. I don’t know how you guys do it. Brilliant. Cheers Grant

It is time to make the first thoughts about the way I will arrange the planking, either on the forecastle and also on the poop deck
Let us take once more a view on the Leightley model in the National Maritim Museum
The poop is decked on both sides with the waterways, in the center with two main planks, and only closed in the beginning and the end of the poop deck.
This is giving a very good view inside the cabins
with a copy of the CAF drawing I tried to simulate a similar way
- I think is looking not bad -> I am open for suggestions and your opinions

Elegant solution Uwe, looks great.
Difficult to say since you know me by now I'm not the symmetry type 
, but it looks very good to show as much as possible.

Piękna praca Uwe mnie podoba się poszycie z muzeum dużo pokazuje co jest w środku a ty masz piękne detale więc pokaż ich jak najwięcej. Z drugiej strony każdy z nas zaczynając budowę modelu ma w głowie wizje jak on będzie wyglądał po zrobieniu więc podążaj za nią. Pozdrawiam Mirek
Hello
Beautiful work Uwe I like the sheathing from the museum a lot shows what's inside and you have beautiful details so show them as much as possible. On the other hand, each of us, starting the construction of the model, has visions of what it will look like after making it, so follow it. Regards, Mirek

Since you asked...from my perspective less is more. Since you will be showing an 'exploded' ship model it just makes sense to keep things as visibly accessible as possible.
This is some brilliant modeling Uwe - a privilege to watch you work...

I really like the raised panel walls. Great work Uwek!
It’s looking promising, open enough to have a nice look inside, Uwe.
