Thanks lads for your replies nice of you to post as the previous 30 lazy viewers couldn't be bothered to leave any good or bad feedback Paul I used an orange bag and sprayed it and stitched it to the barrel with fishing line once again lads thanks for your comments cheers John

You have just given me the air clay idea for representing stowed sails on a ship I will be starting later this year - thanks.

 

[john i am]

No problem Derek I got it from the works £4.00 a block very easy to work with and it will compliment your ship very nicely good luck

Nice work John...i like the entire scene. The stowage is awesome...i brought some miliput for the same thing but i hesitate when it comes to trying new things. The groundwork and foliage are primo. Love the figures they accompany your afv nicely. 5 BIG stars for this build!!!
