Unusual livery. The nozzles look quite bright. Intentionally?

The name of the last Leo strongly suggested such a comparison. Nice to see those two so well done. Fine groundwork too.

Texas hurricane is underway let the fun begin!
Sorry for inverted pics cant get rotated🤠

Rotation is well hidden. To rotate your photos, open your album. Click on "manage". Then turn on the "advanced options" toggle. You will now have the ability to rotate photos in the album.

Tcamp
Thank yall
Im not a rivet counter or anything but.....
The more i looked at the kit boom i could not figure how it would work ..
Revell had their boom right im also going to support mine as they did and use poles instead of ratlines. Which tie down inside of the work area ?
Im not feeling that one either lol
Again thanks

Oooohhh... so nice 🙂
A Lindberg kit? Seen them but never got one, yet. That looks amazing.

Started out life as a Pyro Plastics kit which in turn was a reverse-engineered copy (pretty much a blatant rip-off) of the Model Shipways wooden kit of the M.T. (Motor Trawler) Hildina H-222 which was built by Cook, Welton & Gemmell Ltd. in 1951. If you look for photos, you will see it matches the Hildina except for some artistic license in the pilothouse windows mainly but an easy fix. The sloped rear pilothouse roof is also a distinctive feature of the Hildina. Apparently the front boom can face forward or aft (is it on a swivel?) according to need. I know the boom was used to hoist the cod end (heaviest part of the net) aboard. These kits are a great basis for conversion to R/C as the original plastic kits were motorized.

M0rce
The details on this kit are so crisp. Looking forward to seeing what you're doing to the rear section.

Tcamp
Me too. ( LOL )
thanks m0rce

Snake Plissken
@M0rce I thought you meant where the deckhouse meets the wrap-around stern section; there's a bad gap there where the aft doors are, port and starboard, but maybe you meant the rear mast. Some trawlers only had a foremast and added a simple derrick to handle the lifeboat.

Hi Guy 👋😃👍
Taking good shape now, has it all gone together ok so far..?? Tamiya are usually good?
I've only do one armour model....the Airfix Sherman 1/72 ....was a gift.
Best of luck with next steps 👍👍

Guy Rump
Primer is now on! Next is the undercoat colour. 👍

Many thanks Mr D for your kind comment. It's fitted together really well as you'd expect. I'm experimenting with this one with a bit of weathering and chipping, hopefully it will turn out ok. 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Jan P, RolfRolf & Lukas M. 👍

Undercoat painted on (Vallejo model air black). Next will be the main colour. 🙂

Many thanks mate for your interest and like Mr D. 👍

RLM79 added as final coat. Next will be main body weathering. 🙂

Wheels added and first bit of the weathering done, the chipping effects. Next will be to start to add all of the ancillaries. 🙂
