Hi.
I see Cammett have their canvas railing covers for this boat for sale now. Has anyone seen them yet?  looking on the web site they would seem to be a brass etching.

Hi
Richard got the canvas railing covers from Cammett last week they are very good quality.

I have replaced my photo etch decking with teak planks to give more depth to the appearence.
It was sanded and wire brushed to bring out the grain and then 3 coats of shellac.

Looks good, les rogers, thats the great thing about this kit you can go on adding to it when you get an idea.

Robert, A friend of mine is making this kit, and going to quite remarkable lengths to improve the accuracy.  You can see his work on my Bismarck forum http://buildthebismark.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=otherbuilds&action=display&thread=1500&page=1

He has made some drawings of his modifications available for a small price, details of which are on his web site.  http://rpalmacci.free.fr/  If you want to iron out some of the 'poetic licence' these drawings should save you a fair bit of research.  (Martin, I hope you don't mind this link here.)
