Ahoy Mates!
I don't post much here but after four years of neglect I'm finally finishing my 1/350 TITANIC and man it feels good! ( especially after spending over 170.00 bucks on P/E sets and decals! ) yikes!
QUESTION:
I think it was a FINESCALE mag that I saw a cool article about rigging material that titightens with a very small amount of heat. If so does it come in a variety of thickness and has anyone here used it?
The Hull is cut for waterline display and thats just a blue towl....the decks were custom made from evergreen sheet but I can not remember what size or style...I do remember talking to Mr. Perry of GMM ( Who lives not too far from me ) and he said that it was a hell of a lot closer to the plank size than what the kit has...which is about 12 inches in width I think and a lot easier than scribing new ones like he did! ( we had a good laugh about that one cuz that what I did to begin with but was going crazy! )
Since those pics, have used some white and light tan chalk to treat the decks to give it more of a slightly weathered and proper look and made some correstions on my choice of window frames and rebuilt that whole little square building you see with no roof so the correct window frames will fit properly, same goes for the Palm court Cafe windows.
Thanks!!
Straighten up and fly right.....
