The deadeyes are done

I'm starting some of the dummy cannons before the chain plates get in the way

But since I'm not using the ones provided by the kit they need to be modified


8 done, 96 to go

 

[Kurt Konrath]

Keep going they will be done soon.

34 gunports left, but I need to wait for some hinges on the mail

Here's a picture of gunports fully weathered on top row, and still missing the pigments on the bottom

 

[Kurt Konrath]

What company are you getting hinges from?

 

[Kurt Konrath]

Did your kit come with metal gun port frames and doors? My cross section did and they don't good very good.

I was thinking you were making your own replacement doors and no frames.
