Hi all here is an update on this one

Hi all as a note People keep asking me how I do these sails, well here is a short guide, they are so easy.

First you need the white spirit you clean your brushes in ( you know the jar or bottle or whatever that all the sludge builds up in( I keep mine topped up in a little bottle as I use it for other things too)

you  get your vac formed sails , your brush and your white spirit.

then you get a good brushfull of the sludge in the bottom of the bottle and scrub it all over the sail(both sides)

allow it to dry and give a second coat if required

then with a downwards motion wipe the muck off till you're happy with the effect

 

and there you are, see how easy it is.

Really great job.  The sails came out well and the whole model and setting is very nicely done.  You should enter it in a show and have a trophy to go with it to it's owner.  He should be very happy with it.
