Excellent work Skyfire. You've really managed to catch the atmosphere of a working boat. She really looks the part.

Your finish does transmit the grace of these little sailing boats. She's a real beauty, Sky. Looking to see her fitted with the rigging.

Fantastic Skyfire, really impressed with the finish. Did you stain or varnish? The paint I used was acrylic paint, the colour being a mix of several paints to get as close to the walnut varnish I had used earlier, (which then went bone dry). Think the lid wasn't on quite hard enough after last being used. I love the atmosphere I have managed to create as well and hope to add to it with the rigging and the sails.

Beautiful work Sky! I love the aged/used look you have given to it , it really looks authentic. I am patiently (thats a lie!) awaiting the first issues of the Victory to arrive ans seeing this model just whets my appetite even more. For that have a K
