Hi again Neil. The tar effect really is superb, and very difficult to achieve. I also spied a rather nice Tri-plane hanging up. You are a man of many talents.
Oh Shucks ! Many thanks Neil.
Some more work, the paddles, boats, fire buckets, smoke stacks, axes and…………
The lights work !!!!!
The lights work !!!!!

Very good, bravo! Truly an excellent kit, but it doesn't go from the box to nearly finished without a serious helping of skill and patience. Just a thought... but could you make the stern wheel revolve slowly with a motor?
What a gorgeous build. Thanks for posting. I'm in the middle of a Chaperon build but about to pull the trigger on this one. I'm really liking these sternwheelers.
Fed up with all the little wires hanging around.
Very thin and fragile, a couple broke off from moving the ship around, re soldered them and built a base to house them and battery.
All still working and a nice 9v battery holder with a switch on the front end.
Still more finishing to do on the ship.
A really lovely designed kit. Faultless.

The lightning is a big plus for this model, Neil. Up to the finishing touch.

It really looks lovely lit up. Cute little model.
