    Brian's Sovereign of the seas

    Ok guys I value your input so here goes do I leave the bronze/brass pieces as is, or I have some nice gold leaf form a previous project ? But.......there are over 600 pieces :) According to my book King Charles I insisted the carvings were all gilded

    Brian's Sovereign of the seas

    not sure how old my kit is but all the metal pieces are solid bronze, (had to file some burrs off) whereas I have seen online white metal pieces in the newer kits. is this correct? Not that i'm moaning the solid brass is better quality than the white metal.

    Cheers Joe, going to make my own hatch covers as the kit ones are very poor and are flat with no curve. I'm using the original as a template :)

    Brian's Sovereign of the seas

    Fitted the decks last night , I need to decide to do the trenails or not. If I cock it up I would have to redo the decks for a second time and that worries me .
