If I had the time to spare mate I would weather it for u but I just haven't got the time at the moment still halfway through sorting babies room out and to make things even worse her work have only paid her £15 for the month they have deducted from her stat sick pay and stat maternity pay so it's going to be a very bad month hoping I can sell my 2 boats I got for sale  :((

Absolutely fantastic well done. Where did you learn to weather paint like that?

Also..... I am scratch building an early steam schooner and after seeing all the fittings on the puffer I wondered if they are available to buy separately?  By fittings I mean all the hooks shackles deadeyes and things like that. I have worked out that the scale of my boat to be 1/25 (4cm =1 metre) and anything that wont look too out of place size wise will be a big help. Thanks, and well done again!   U2

Cheers ian trouble is I don't no what to move on to next still thinking about a 1/24 ferry just time and money I'm lacking at the moment bud but I definitely want to build something else. Think when little lady has arrived I will get my head down and think of something unless I can sell my trawler and I will buy another kit possibly depending on what the boss says lol
