Thanks Guy she is already out of the keen/clean box. 17 minutes ago, BlrwestSiR said: Looks very nice. Thanks Carl I am thinking may be one of my better builds of late if I don't muck up the weathering.What weathering I have already done accomplished what I wanted/believed would happen it darken the sand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worn ......but not battered ....dirty ..but that's not running the show here when you look at the model ..that air filter rocks as well . She's a good 'un 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterpools Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 Kev Looking mighty good and I'm not a heavy weathering guy, so keeping it light, is how I like 'em. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinM Posted September 21 Author Share Posted September 21 Martin gone as far as I am on this one weathering the bottom came out like crap no show but the area around the nose came out have way decent.This one is finished and in the books need to straighten out the antenna before it sets to. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 Looks very nice there Kevin. How do you get the antenna connection mid- way down the long one? I've never figured that bit out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never figured that bit out. I met to answer sooner Carl when using the flex line SG attaches very quickly if fresh.The idea is to not pull it to taught(I Did old glue) on the vertical let dry real well.I then pull the left over of the vertical pretty taught and clip with some thin tiny scissors it leaves no nub.I do the same on ship rigging also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a simple scheme for sure but when John went the two tone scheme I decided to go back to my original choice of the single tone the Black Chevrons always kinda had a hook in me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
