That is impressive. You must be patient.    Now rest your eyes in a darkened room  %%

As Kenny says 'patience'
Will look good with all the rivets :-))

Can a mod please change the title
Could be a paddle steamer  or a lifeboat  {-)

Like whip antennas?


I haven't made any yet, but thought I would try taking a piece of wire, dipping it into white paint, and letting it dry.  Once dry, repeat the process (much like making taper candles). Keep going until it is the right thickness.  Hopefully it will taper like a candle.  If a springy wire, like piano wire were used, and a flexible paint, like acrylic, it might end up being flexible, and not susceptible to getting kinked or damaged.  The tip could be dipped in black acrylic at the end as well.


If you try, let me know the results.
