Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

Might check with the local "dollar store" or something along those lines in the party section. They might have some napkins or other stuff with red/white/blue striping that could be used. Either from last year or getting ready for Memorial Day and the 4th.
Looking great, lot accomplished over the w/e. Now to just find time to nap a little.
MC, this is looking very very cool. I get a real sence of motion with what you have done. I think you are nailing it.
Wow buddy, that is looking great. You nailed the huge splash wave, and the dock is coming along nicely. I am impressed with how you created the vessel flags. Well thoughtout and detailed build my friend!

Nice work on the wave so far. Learning from one of the best here.
Very nice work, looks like everything is shaping up just as you expected.
Steve -
I know you have put a lot of time and work into the sub deck...man it is looking so awesome! I know you are going to nail the "wave" when you apply the acrylic spray. Very impressive friend...as always!
Looking good MC. I am taking notes.
This build sure has a lot of "Wow Factor" being built into it (as usual).

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.
Thanks GH,
I need to "groom" the cotton into something that looks more like spray, then AB some varnish to stiffen it. After that I will apply some more as needed. Making the cotton look like spray and not cotton is the tough part everything up till now is easy.
Ooooooooooooooooooo..looks good.
MC, your model is looking excellent! Thanks for the update... Keep them coming.
LOL oh ya I see that now! Didn't notice in earlier posts. You need the work I'm sure!
HokeyAre you building this "scratch" deckless becasue they luanched with no deck or?
Yes, every pic I see of the Wisconsin launchings were deckless, which adds a whole lot more work for me.
modelcrazy I started the deck cross members. I used .02” strips. Below is the bow plane mechanism.

On the medium stuff it wanted to dry kind of cloudy on me in a thicker coat, something around an 1/8 of an inch thick. But the temp varied in the shop from 50 to 70 degrees.
I am in awe on how quick and awesome this build is coming alone. I believe there is a first place plaque coming your way at the SL contest. I have taken snap shots of your instructions so far so that I can follow your steps in the water area of the dio. Absolutely a wonderful job friend.
My hope is that the gel will dry clear enough where one can see the color but it's not on the surface. Most of it will be covered with cotton, but the hint will be there.
I also grabbed a few parts from the spares box and am constructing the bow plane mechanism. Next will be installing the deck cross members.
Looking very nice, that works for me.
