It just needs that old fish smell and it will be like the real thing. Like Mark said, Billiant.

Thanks a lot my friends.  :-))
I could use leftover fish from the cats dinners for the right smell!!!

Blizzard in my workspace??? .... no no I did only sand the upper deck.





Then I started with the wheelhouse/captains quarters ....

I was thinking when I read your post about fitting the A frame that I couldn't recall the wheel house being done! No worries though as you are steaming through its build already. Crisp work Danielle  :-)

Thanks a lot!!!  :-)) :-)) :-))

Another day in the cold of my workspace ... the heater does work well but the floor is very cold.

From this ...



To this ....



Everything has to be square ....





Open doors and the windows are the most difficult part to build.

Get yourself a mat to stand on Danielle. It keeps the cold out of the legs.

The wheelhouse is looking good  :-))

Thanks a lot! I may put a piece of wood on the floor .... wood seems to isolate well against the cold.

Friday ... last day of the week to finish things. I did finish the walls of the wheelhouse. Came out as I wanted.





Some pieces where made 3 times till they came out right but thats the modellers life!!!

I added reinforcements at the top and a floor made of 3mm ply (anything else was out of stock in my workspace).





I will add details as radar, plotter, radios, steering wheel, seats, computers etc etc



The usual pictures to check the overall look.

Thanks a lot to you!!!  :-)) :-)) :-))

I wasn't happy with the internal height of the wheelhouse. I cut out the floor and decided to glue a new one in some 6mm lower.





Now it looks much more realistic! Just like the pics of the owner and his son standing in it!







And a picture of the original wheelhouse ...

Sorry Danielle, is it me? the owner seems closer to the roof than your model man, matching the waist height etc, i think your original floor height would have been better, just me!!!

Not so sure, if you look at the edge of the slope on the wheel housing it is just below navel height on the real bloke and the scruffy individual who has lost his barrow !  ok2

You're right Mike!!! I started to build the console with the screens and the wheel and it was so low that the screens would have been at the height of the captains butt .... way too low! I also included some reserve in the height as the actual bloke on the wheel will be handmade by my wife (hopefully). As you may remember, they are a little bit bigger than the scale they should be.

I made the console for monitors and radios etc .... came out rather well .... as you wont see it really good at the finished model I do not have to built it in museum quality. But I must say that without lowering the floor I could not do it! You'll see it if you add the 6-7mm to the existing floor....

The next fishtrawler I build will have a wheelhouse with no strange angles everywhere ... !!!!! ok2

Abject apologies to your wife Danielle !  O0 it looks like my 'scruffy individual' description was indeed her effort. My only excuse is he looks more at home in the second set of pics with the actual wheel in front of him (and not an invisible wheel barrow).

A weak excuse, but the best I can come up with !   %)

It is a good figure. I apologise to everyone for assuming the wrong designer and questioning your I.P Mike!

The 2 doors for the wheelhouse are ready.



They open to the outside which is a big problem ... I will glue them in place ... never mind!



Some neat wood for the inside ...
