Where we are. The main hulls are undercoated and the various bits and bobs you see at the top of the picture are those items that are easier to paint first and stick in place second. The top stand has a selection of light masts and the whole length cocktail sticks are painted first and then cut to size - these will be gun barrels and flagstaffs. The middle two stands contain the cranes and guns for the Graf von Gotzen (bottom right) whilst the lower stand has a funnel and four ships boats.
A busy day for sure but I was able to get the models undercoated prior to serious business of the top coat is undertaken. I have a couple of free long lunchtimes this week so should be able to get these table ready and into action over the bank holiday weekend.
I have also made a couple of significant decisions in respect of how this ‘mini’ project will develop and will pen a suitable post in due course but for now it will be enough to say that this particular obsession will not be going away anytime soon!
Which means of course, that something will have to give way….
