discussion Airfix 1\72 Golden Hinde

[peterairfix]

Another one I have been working on for a while.
Built as airfix intended just using what was in the box the ratlines were constructed using the kit supplied loom witch is a miracle for me.
I didn't use the crew as they were so badly moulded.View attachment 313121View attachment 313122View attachment 313123View attachment 313124View attachment 313125

A really nice build Peter.How did you go about painting/decaling the colourful shapes on the woodwork?

All the painting was masked and I took me a week for one side.
Here's a couple of under construction shots I took.View attachment 313533View attachment 313534

Hi Peter
Very nice indeed. Admire your patience with masking - worth it for that neat result.
