1/72 HMS Iron Duke - Type 23 Frigate

[Tworrs]

So far (touch wood) never had a problem with the beautifully striking Matron but - accurately applying small amounts of CA is still something of a skill yet to be mastered :disappointed2: (PS I hate PE for most applications - my Marmite substance!)

I too have had no problems with Matron, perhaps I'm too far for her to travel.
Regarding CA, the only way that I have found that works for me, is the end of a toothpick.

I really couldn't justify the cost of brass stanchions delivered to NZ, so had to go with the PE, it will be a real learning curve, but I will do my best :smiling:

Loving it Garry

Thank you Brian.
