Its been a while since I posted but been working in Dubai for the past 5 weeks and company firewall is even tighter than it is in the uk office. Hotel was charging me so I only had a quick look now and again to see how all the other builds were coming along. Never mind back to sensible temperatures and green stuff - Why people want to live there is beyond me! However been busy before I left and progressed a couple of old builds whilst I wait for my subscriptions to the Yamato and Victory to build up. I learned from the Bissy that if you build on receipt of your issues every month then you have long periods of nothing to do! Sadly I had a bit of a senior moment and deleted most of my build photos from the laptop so you will note I go from keel to fully planked in one easy step! This is my second JoTika kit but the instructions are poor cousin to the Pickle. In saying that I have managed not to bad but have made a couple of mistakes. I decided to have a go at caulking the decking using a felt marker but over did it and when I sanded the deck the ink spread all over the surface making it look a bit grubby. I reduced the ink on the top deck which has turned out a bit better. I have also made some progress on the old Titanic so will post some pics in the build diary.
