Would appreciate any feedback.
So, another noob question. I had planned to stain my masts, but the Model Expo English Oak stain I have looks very orange. I was thinking of using the walnut stain (which I also have) which is a somewhat rich dark brown, but I wonder--is there any reason historically why that would be a bad (inaccurate) choice?10711120190808_125407.jpg
