Hi all, I am finishing a Zwarte Zee (Billings) started 30 odd years ago and passed on to me (free) and I am at a stage where I need to prepare the brass for painting. I am trying a concentrated effort on building, have given myself til the end of July!!!.
There are over 300 items including 150 odd stanchions about 1/2 inch high and with 3 holes for the rails.
I am thinking of a liquid that I can put in a jar and put the fittings in and shake.
I was then going to spray an etcher on and then spray paint. The stanchions to be constructed with rails off boat and sprayed before fitting.
The other items to be hand painted.
I have made lots of models but all these fittings are a little daunting!
Any tips or hints please will be very welcome.
regards to all, Roy
