Interesting project.

Treehugger
Looks similar to the one seen in the movie 'The Finest hours' (2016).

I'm in - didn't know you could de-bond CA!

Thomas Espe
Thanks for the likes, all!

@Treehugger - yes, the movie is based on a rescue in 1952 by CG36500 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Pendleton#Loss). The kit is not of that actual boat, but the same type (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifeboat_(rescue)#36'_(foot)).

@Thomas - oh yes, it worked very well debonding the CA, I used 3/4 of a bottle to get rid if it all.

Very intersting 👍
What are the waves made of?

Andy WW1
There's something extra nice about old kit rescue, looks good I shall follow along. Liking that wave base a lot 👍

Thomas Espe
Thanks, Łukasz and Andy.

The waves are made from 2-3 layers of tissue paper and watered down PVA.
The base itself is XPS with balsa framing.

Uploaded some images of the finished project. Quite happy with. The pictures are not that great though, I'm no photographer, but they give an impression of what the end result is.

Treehugger
Very nice. 🙂
