Yep good to see more mates building ships, may a virus is gad around
Well I'm in and I'm impressed and curious what comes next because you drilled up all the portholes.
Cheers, Christian

I am hoping to use the plastic bags the parts came in for the "glass" effect for the portholes, but will use flat black on the inner to simulate the blackout. I am planning to do this with almost all of the portholes throughout the ship (hull and superstructure) with a clear blue for the bridge windows. I will try to document the procedure with photos this coming weekend. Am building the guns and opening all the windows/portholes during this week. May even try to get the wood deck sections painted this weekend as well.
