Amati 1\250 RMS Titanic full kit

[peterairfix]

On with the next part this time I have constructed two sets of cabin walls ready for decorations to be glued on.
But still nowhere near ready to start on the hull planking.

A little update I have got the decorations on the the bow and stern walls constructed earlier and have planked the first of full length decks.

Despite being a bit busy at work I have managed to make some headway with the planking.

Hi Peter

........ now time for the messy bit.

Planking looks good. I suppose the 'messy bit' is the filling of the gaps between the planks?

Filling is all done the messy bit is all that sanding.

Hi Peter
Thanks for that. I could understand that a ship which in reality had planks would look fine with wooden planks but I was a bit puzzled with using planking for something like this. I can appreciate the sanding will be very dusty :rolling:

And after a day of sanding and more sanding with a little bit more sanding and some filling and then more sanding here's the result and then on to the next stage which will be the second layer of planking that holds the portholes.

Well done. That must have taken some effort!

Well done.
