The next fiddly phase has been completed and so the model has now been sealed prior to undercoating and painting. The final fiddly phase will of course, adding the ‘teeth’ - the gun barrels.
Students of military architecture should look away methinks….
The two interior buildings are not fixed in place yet. This stage was adding the gates, doors and shutters - all from laser cut grey card. As the interior is rather more expansive that on the earlier model I also had to do the same with the inside as you can see.
A clearer view of the interior and the two internal buildings. The larger of the two will be glued against the flat front wall on the inside. This will give a more secure join to the two blocks that are currently only glued at the ends.
The model has been sealed prior to undercoating and painting so my next step will be the former. I will also need to jig up the enquired number of cocktail sticks for the gun barrels and flagstaffs. I will also need to drill a few holes and also address the rather embarrassing lack of entrance points to the gun deck….
It is definitely getting there though and I am pretty pleased with the progress so far.

Looking great Dave!
Thanks Ray! Painting is now underway so there will be one more WIP pictures and then the finished article.
It has been quite straightforward to build but fiddly.
All the best,
DC
