Hi Bruce,
Are the ensigns' locations from the kit instructions?
Thanks
Allan

Yes I believe they are. I will double check and make sure. - Here is a picture of the box illustration. The instructions match. If they are in the wrong place I won’t tell anyone if you don’t!

A very nice build, Bruce. When I represented age on the coppering on my HMS Snake build I used colour washes; what technique did you use? Cheers.

Hello Graham. Not knowing exactly what to do I just left the tiles the colour that they were in the kit and used a clear sealer to protect them.

I think the flags shown are appropriate and probably far more accurate than most, assuming the church pennant is taking into account divine services on October 21st or 22nd for Nelson after he died.

Thank you, she looks great.
